Genetic association between ACTN3 polymorphism and risk of non-acute ankle sprain.

چکیده
In this study, we investigated the association between ACTN3 R577X polymorphism and non-acute ankle sprain by measuring the allele frequency and genotype distribution of ACTN3 in a Chinese Han population. We recruited 100 patients with non-acute ankle sprain and 100 healthy controls with no history of ankle injuries. Mass spectrometric analysis of single nucleotide polymorphism was used to analyze the genotype and allele frequencies of ACTN3. Results showed that the genotype frequency of RR in patients was 12.0%, which was significantly lower than that of the controls (24.0%) (OR = 1.7; 95%CI = 1.5-2.7; P = 0.001). The frequency distribution of the R allele in patients and controls were 68.5 and 56.7%, respectively (P = 0.002). Moreover, frequency of the RR genotype exhibited a downward linear trend with increased incidences of ankle sprain. Our results suggest that ACTN3 R577X polymorphism is associated with non-acute ankle sprain in the Chinese Han population.

Investigation of the Relationship Between a Genetic Polymorphism in ACTN3 and Elite Sport Performance Among Iranian Soccer Players
Objectives: Polymorphisms in α-actinin-3 (ACTN3) gene are considered to be important in the genetic predisposition to human athletic performance. Most of the activities in soccer such as jumping, striking the ball, and running are considered plyometric and explosive. Performance power during such activities depends on the strength of the muscles involved. Therefore, high muscle strength i...
متن کاملTwo genetic loci associated with ankle injury
Ankle injuries, including sprains, strains and other joint derangements and instability, are common, especially for athletes involved in indoor court or jumping sports. Identifying genetic loci associated with these ankle injuries could shed light on their etiologies. A genome-wide association screen was performed using publicly available data from the Research Program in Genes, Environment and...
