Migraine, a condition stemming from neurological and vascular irregularities with inflammation involvement, was investigated in a case-control study focusing on the Chinese Han population.
The research analyzed specific genetic variations-TNF-α -308 G/A, TNF-α -857 C/T, TNF-α -238G/A, IL1B-3953 C/T, and IL1RN -2018T/C SNPs-within 212 migraine patients and 210 healthy controls. Utilizing SNaPshot technology, scientists genotyped these markers related to TNF-α and IL-1 genes.
Findings revealed a significant association between the IL1B-3953 C/T SNP and migraine susceptibility, particularly noting its link with a familial history of the disorder. The presence of the C allele at this location was more prevalent in migraine sufferers. Multivariate analysis reinforced this connection, indicating the C allele under a dominant model as an independent risk factor for migraine (OR = 2.315, 95%CI: 1.053-5.090, P = 0.037). Additionally, the study observed a sex-specific difference regarding the TNF-α -857 C/T SNP among migraine patients.
Overall, this investigation contributes to understanding the genetic underpinnings of migraine in the Han Chinese population, highlighting the IL1B-3953 C/T SNP as a potential biomarker for migraine susceptibility.
偏头痛是一种由神经和血管异常并伴有炎症参与引起的疾病,在一项针对中国汉族人群的病例对照研究中对其进行了调查。
该研究分析了212例偏头痛患者和210例健康对照者的特定基因变异——TNF-α -308 G/A、TNF-α -857 C/T、TNF-α -238G/A、IL1B-3953 C/T和IL1RN -2018T/C单核苷酸多态性(SNP)。科学家们利用SNaPshot技术对这些与TNF-α和IL-1基因相关的标记进行基因分型。
研究结果显示IL1B-3953 C/T SNP与偏头痛易感性之间存在显著关联,尤其指出其与该疾病家族史的联系。在这个位置存在的C等位基因在偏头痛患者中更为普遍。多变量分析强化了这种关联,表明在显性模型下C等位基因是偏头痛的独立危险因素(OR = 2.315,95%CI:1.053 - 5.090,P = 0.037)。此外,该研究在偏头痛患者中观察到TNF-α -857 C/T SNP存在性别特异性差异。
总体而言,这项研究有助于了解汉族人群偏头痛的遗传基础,突出了IL1B-3953 C/T SNP作为偏头痛易感性潜在生物标志物的作用。
