The paraoxonase Gln-Arg 192 polymorphism in patients with endogenous hypertriglyceridemia in Chinese population

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the 192 Gln-Arg polymorphism of paraoxonase (PON) gene and its relationship with serum lipids and apolipoproteins (apo) levels in patients with endogenous hypertriglyceridemia in Chinese population in Chengdu area.

METHODS: The genotype and allele frequencies of paraoxonase gene 192 Gln-Arg polymorphism were assayed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). Serum lipids were measured by enzymatic kits and apolipoproteins AI, A II, B100, C I, C II and E were measured by the RID kits developed by the Apolipoprotein Research Unit of this university in 128 HTG patients whose fasting serum TG levels were > or = 2.26 mmol/L and 129 healthy subjects whose fasting serum TG levels were < 1.82 mmol/L and TC levels < 6.2 mmol/L from a population of Chinese Han nationality in Chengdu area.

RESULTS: Both in HTG group and control group, the QR genotype of PON gene was the major one, and the frequencies were 0.515 and 0.581 respectively. No differences were found in PON gene Gln-Arg polymorphism between the HTG group and the control group. In the control group, the QQ genotype of PON gene was found to have higher serum apoA I levels, compared with the RR genotype (P < 0.05). But in the HTG group, when compared with the RR genotype, the QQ genotype was found to have lower serum apoA I and A II levels and higher serum apoE levels.

CONCLUSION: These may be an association of the QQ genotype of the paraoxonase 192 Gln-Arg polymorphism with the decrease of serum apoA I level and the increase of serum apoE level in endogenous hypertriglyceridemica.
