人类免疫缺陷病毒1感染相关的基因多态性在中国汉族人群中的分布

目的：调查中国汉族人群中人类免疫缺陷病毒１（ＨＩＶ－１）感染相关的ＣＣＲ５Δ３２、ＣＣＲ２－６４１和ＳＤＦ１－３‘Ａ等位基因突变频率和多态性的特点。方法：以１２５１例汉族人群为研究对象，应用ＰＣＲ、ＰＣＲ／ＲＦＬＰ（聚合酶链反应／限制性片段长度多态性分析）和ＤＮＡ直接测序等方法进行检测，并用统计学方法进行分析。结果：发现中国汉族人群中存在ＣＣＲ５Δ３２等位基因突变（均为杂合子基因型），突变频率为１

Distribution of HIV resistance CCR5-delta32, CCR2-64I and SDF1-3'A alleles and their polymorphisms in the Han population in China

OBJECTIVE: To study the frequency and polymorphism of three mutations (CCR5(Delta)32, CCR2-64I and SDF1-3'A alleles) conferring resistance to determined HIV-1/AIDS in the indigenous Han population in China. METHODS: The study population included 1,267 subjects, of which consisted 98.7% (1,251/1,267) Han people. The genotypes of the three mutations were respectively, detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for CCR5(Delta)32 mutation, or by PCR/RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphism) assay with the digestion of restriction endonuclease Bsa BI and Msp I for CCR2-64I and SDF1-3'A mutations. DNA sequencing was employed to confirm the accuracy of PCR or PCR/RFLP products. RESULTS: The frequency of the mutant alleles were: 0.00119 for CCR5(Delta)32; 0.20023 for CCR2-64I, and 0.28723 for SDF1-3'A. The three heterozygous CCR5-wt/Delta32 mutants were identified and no homozygotes were detected in indigenous Han population. The frequencies of CCR2-64I and SDF1-3'A alleles in China were higher than those of Caucasians descents in the USA and Europe. CONCLUSION: Our data was the first findings on the frequency and polymorphism of CCR5(Delta)32, CCR2-64I and SDF1-3'A alleles in indigenous Han population in China which implied that the indigenous Han people might have a higher genetic susceptibility to the infection of sexually transmitted HIV-1 (R-5) strain. Further study is needed to clarify the significance of higher frequency of CCR2-64I and SDF1-3'A alleles in Han population.
