中国南方系统性红斑狼疮患者Fas-670基因多态性研究

目的:研究Fas-670基因多态性在中国南方地区汉族人群中的分布及其与系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)的相关性。方法:应用聚合酶链反应(PCR)-限制性片段长度多态性(RFLP)方法,对103例SLE患者和110例中国南方地区汉族正常对照者进行了Fas-670基因多态性检测。结果:SLE患者Fas基因-670位点基因型和等位基因频率与正常对照组比较无显著差异;而Fas基因-670位点基因型和等位基因频率分布,按性别分层后,男性和女性SLE患者分别与正常对照者比较以及SLE并发狼疮性肾炎(LN)患者和正常对照组比较及SLE并发LN患者与未并发LN患者间比较,均无显著差异。结论:Fas-670基因多态性与中国南方地区汉族系统性红斑狼疮无相关性。

Association of Fas promoter-670 polymorphism with systemic lupus erythematosus in southern Chinese

AIM: To investigate whether Fas promoter-670 polymorphism is associated with systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE) in Southern Chinese. METHODS: 103 SLE patients and 110 controls were studied. Fas promoter -670 polymorphism was typed by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). RESULTS: No statistically significant differences were found when Fas promoter -670 genotype and allele frequencies were compared between the SLE and the controls. Similarly, no significant differences were seen between the male and female SLE and the controls, the SLE with lupus nephritis (LN) and the controls, the SLE with LN and the SLE without LN. CONCLUSION: Fas promoter -670 polymorphism does not appear to be associated with susceptibility to SLE in Southern Chinese.
