Obesity is a major risk factor of chronic-diseases, including cardiovascular-diseases (CVD). Increasing evidence is showing the association of heat-shock protein (HSP) with type-2 diabetes and CVD; however, there is little data on the relationship between the genetic-polymorphisms of HSP70-2 with obesity.
The present study has investigated the association between 1267HSP70-2 genetic polymorphism and obesity in an Iranian population with 317 subjects.
Anthropometric parameters and biochemical measurements were measured in all the samples, while genotypes were determined using PCR-RFLP. Univariate/multivariate analyses were conducted to explore the relationship between the genetic-polymorphisms and obesity.
The data showed a significant association between 1267HSP70-2 polymorphism in obese subjects, compared to the non-obese group. Moreover, it was observed that this polymorphism was associated with obesity in the CAD + group, which had a high BMI compared to non-obese controls.
The 1267HSP70-2 polymorphism is associated with obesity in an Iranian population, supporting a possible potential genetic link between obesity and cardiovascular diseases.
肥胖是包括心血管疾病(CVD)在内的慢性疾病的主要风险因素。越来越多的证据表明热休克蛋白(HSP)与2型糖尿病和心血管疾病有关;然而,关于HSP70-2基因多态性与肥胖之间关系的数据很少。
本研究调查了1267HSP70-2基因多态性与317名伊朗人群肥胖之间的关联。
对所有样本进行人体测量参数和生化检测,同时采用聚合酶链反应-限制性片段长度多态性(PCR-RFLP)法确定基因型。进行单因素/多因素分析以探讨基因多态性与肥胖之间的关系。
数据显示,与非肥胖组相比,肥胖受试者中1267HSP70-2多态性存在显著关联。此外,观察到该多态性与CAD +组的肥胖有关,与非肥胖对照组相比,该组体重指数(BMI)较高。
1267HSP70-2多态性与伊朗人群的肥胖有关,支持肥胖与心血管疾病之间可能存在潜在的遗传联系。
