ACE gene insertion/deletion polymorphism is associated with glioblastoma in an Iranian population: a case-control study

Free access

Background. The insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene has recently been reported to be associated with the pathogenesis and development of human cancers. This study aimed to assess the potential association between ACE (I/D) polymorphism and glioblastoma in an Iranian population. Material and Methods. This case-control study was conducted on 80 patients with glioblastoma and 80 healthy blood donors as controls. Gap-polymerase chain reaction (Gap-PCR) was used to determine the ACE (I/D) genotypes. PCR products were separated and measured by electrophoresis on a 2 % agarose gel. Results. Analysis of demographic data showed a significant difference in the family history of cancer between the case and control groups (p=0.03). The distribution of ACE gene variants including II, ID, and DD genotypes was also calculated, and significant differences were seen in the DD genotype (p=0.03) and D allele (p=0.04) between the glioblastoma cases and controls. Conclusion. ACE gene polymorphism was associated with glioblastoma in the study population. Further studies are needed to approve this finding.

Полиморфизм вставки/делеции гена АПФ связан с глиобластомой у населения Ирана: исследование случай-контроль

Актуальность. Недавно сообщалось, что инсерционно-делеционный (I/D) полиморфизм гена ангиотензин-превращающего фермента (АПФ) связан с патогенезом и развитием рака человека. Целью исследования была оценка потенциальной связи между I/D полиморфизмом гена АПФ и глиобластомой у населения Ирана. материал и методы. В исследовании случай-контроль участвовали 80 пациентов с глиобластомой и 80 здоровых доноров в качестве группы контроля. Полимеразная цепная реакция (Gap-PCR) использовалась для определения генотипов I/D полиморфизма гена AПФ. ПЦР-продукты разделяли и измеряли электрофорезом в 2 % агарозном геле. Результаты. Анализ демографиче-ских данных показал значительную разницу в семейной истории рака между основной и контрольной группами (p=0,03). Было рассчитано распределение вариантов гена АПФ, включая генотипы II, ID и DD, и были обнаружены значительные различия в генотипе DD (p=0,03) и аллеле D (p=0,04) между группой больных с глиобластомой и контрольной группой. заключение. Полиморфизм гена AПФ был связан с глиобластомой в исследуемой популяции. Необходимы дальнейшие исследования, чтобы подтвердить эти данные.
