血管紧张素转换酶(ACE)基因插入/缺失(I/D)多态性与心肌梗死及相关心血管疾病的发生有关。我们调查了ACE多态性与原发性高血压的可能关联,共263例/对照组,来自日本老年人(年龄在70岁以上)和中年人(年龄在30岁至60岁之间)。老年组高血压患者I/I纯合子频率显著高于对照组(33/57 vs 16/46; P = 0.02),但中年组无相关性(25/75 vs 26/85; P = 0.71)。类似地,在老年组中,至少有一个插入等位基因与原发性高血压相关(83/114 vs 46/92对照组; P = 0.001),但在中年组中不相关(78/150 vs 94/170; P = 0.524)。这些数据表明,ACE基因座的遗传变异可能与老年人血压的一些决定因素有关,并暗示ACE插入/缺失多态性参与日本人群中与年龄相关的原发性高血压的病因。
AbstractRecent evidence suggests that an insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism of the gene encoding angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is associated with myocardial infarction and related cardiovascular diseases. We investigated a possible association of the ACE polymorphism with essential hypertension in a total of 263 cases/controls from among the elderly (age, over 70 years) and middle-aged (age between 30 and 60 years) Japanese population. The frequency of the I/I homozygote was significantly higher in hypertensive subjects than in controls in the elderly age group (33/57 vs 16/46; P = 0.02), but no association was observed in the middle-aged group (25/75 vs 26/85; P = 0.71). Similarly, having at least one insertion allele was associated with essential hypertension in the elderly age group (83/114 vs 46/92 in controls; P = 0.001), but not in the middle-aged group (78/150 vs 94/170; P = 0.524). These data suggest that genetic variation at the ACE locus may be associated with some determinants for blood pressure in elderly persons, and imply the involvement of the ACE insertion/deletion polymorphism in the etiology of age-related essential hypertension in the Japanese population.
