IL-10 Genetic Polymorphisms Were Associated with Valvular Calcification in Han, Uygur and Kazak Populations in Xinjiang, China
OBJECTIVE Valvular calcification occurs via ongoing endothelial injury associated with inflammation. IL-10 is an anti-inflammatory cytokine and 75% of the variation in IL-10 production is genetically determined. However, the relationship between genetic polymorphisms of IL-10 and valvular calcification has not been studied. The objective of this study was to investigate the association between ...
متن کاملPrevalence of valvular heart diseases and associated risk factors in Han, Uygur and Kazak population in Xinjiang, China
BACKGROUND Valvular heart diseases (VHD) is very common in clinical practice and has became the subject of growing attention in the field of cardiovascular medicine. Our aim was to assess the prevalence and correlates of VHD in the general population in Xinjiang, China. METHODS Using a 4-stage stratified cluster random sampling method, a total of 14618 participants were recruited in the Cardi...
متن کاملRenal Function and Klotho Gene Polymorphisms among Uygur and Kazak Populations in Xinjiang, China
BACKGROUND The association of genetic polymorphisms of klotho gene with aging has not been thoroughly examined. Previous studies showed that longevity in the Uygurs was considerably greater than in Kazaks in Xinjiang. This study aimed to investigate the difference of renal function and Klotho gene polymorphisms between Kazak and Uygur normal populations in Xinjiang, China. MATERIAL/METHODS A ...
متن کاملGenetic polymorphisms of INSIG2 were associated with coronary artery disease in Uygur Chinese population in Xinjiang, China
Background: Dyslipidemia is a major and independent risk factor for the development of Coronary artery disease (CAD). The protein which is encoded by insulin induced gene2 (INSIG2) plays an important role in the mediation of the feedback control of cholesterol synthesis, lipogenesis and glucose homeostasis. The aim of the present study was to assess the association between the human INSIG2 gene...
متن کاملAssociation and differences in genetic polymorphisms in PCSK9 gene in subjects with lacunar infarction in the Han and Uygur populations of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China
Polymorphisms in the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) gene are associated with severe hypercholesterolemia and stroke. Here, we investigated the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms in PCSK9 and stroke in 237 patients with lacunar infarction in the Uygur and Han populations in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China. Using the SNaPshot single-base terminal...
