. Recent studies indicated that the Serine threonine kinase 11 (STK11), which is a key regulator of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), plays a crucial role in cardiovascular system. This study aimed to investigate whether genetic variations in the STK11 gene affect the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) in Chinese type 2 diabetics. . 5 haplotype-tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were selected, and 288 CAD-positive cases and 159 CAD-negative controls with type 2 diabetes were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay. . The carriers of minor allele A at rs12977689 had a higher risk of CAD compared to the homozygotes of CC (OR = 1.572, 95% CI = 1.039-2.376, = 0.035), and the difference was still significant after adjustment for the other known CAD risk factors (OR' = 1.184, 95% CI' = 1.036-1.353, ' = 0.013). . Genetic variability at STK11 locus is associated with CAD risk in type 2 diabetes in the Chinese population.
近期研究表明,丝氨酸苏氨酸激酶11(STK11)作为AMP激活的蛋白激酶(AMPK)的关键调节因子,在心血管系统中发挥着至关重要的作用。本研究旨在探讨STK11基因的遗传变异是否会影响中国2型糖尿病患者患冠状动脉疾病(CAD)的风险。选择了5个单倍型标签单核苷酸多态性(SNP),并通过聚合酶链反应-限制性片段长度多态性(PCR-RFLP)分析对288例CAD阳性的2型糖尿病患者和159例CAD阴性对照进行基因分型。与CC纯合子相比,rs12977689位点携带次要等位基因A的个体患CAD的风险更高(OR = 1.572,95%CI = 1.039 - 2.376,P = 0.035),在对其他已知CAD风险因素进行校正后,差异仍然显著(OR' = 1.184,95%CI' = 1.036 - 1.353,P' = 0.013)。STK11基因座的遗传变异性与中国人群2型糖尿病患者的CAD风险相关。
