摘要
目的探讨广东地区Alzheimer病(AD)患者与apoEε4之间的关联性及性别的影响。方法应用聚合酶链反应-限制性片段长度多态性分析(PCR-RFLP)技术对44例晚发性散发性AD患者、37例非痴呆老年人的apoE基因进行分型。结果apoEε4与晚发性AD有显著的关联;携带1个或1个以上ε4者与无ε4携带者比较,相对危险度(OR值)为4.08,且随ε4基因剂量增加,不含、含1个和含2个apoEε4AD的患病率(分别为40.0%、67.0%和100%)上升,发病年龄明显提前,分别为(80.5±1.7)、(79.5±1.6)和(71.7±1.8)岁(P<0.01);AD患者不同性别之间apoEε4基因型频率和等位基因频率差异无显著性(P>0.05)。结论apoEε4是晚发性AD发病的危险因素;AD患者的性别因素与apoEε4无相关性。
Objective To discuss the association of Alzheimer's disease (AD) in Guangdong with apoEε4 and its influence by sex. Methods The polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR RFLP) technique was used to analyze the apoE allele genotype of 44 late onset AD patients and 37 non dementia elderly controls. Results There was a significant association of apoE4 allele gene with late onset AD. To compare the carrier of one or more ε4 with none ε4, OR (odds ratios) value was 4 08. Furthermore, with the increase of ε4 gene dose, the incidence of AD was increased and the age of onset was earlier ( P <0 01). There was no significant difference of the frequency of apoEε4 allele gene and genotype between women and men in AD patients ( P >0 05). Conclusions This study indicates that apoEε4 allele gene is risk factor for late onset AD and supports the view that there is no significant association of apoEε4 with sex in AD patients.
