摘要
为探讨载脂蛋白E(ApoE)基因多态性与血管性痴呆(vasculardementia,VD)的关系,采用单链构象多态性分析(PCR-SSCP)检测了37例VD患者的ApoE基因型,并与40例同龄对照组及40例非痴呆脑梗塞组比较,同时检测血脂、脂蛋白及部分载脂蛋白。结果表明,VD组ε4基因频率明显高于对照组(P<0.01)和非痴呆脑梗塞组(P<0.05),VD患者中携ε4等位基因者血TC及LDL-C水平显著高于携ε2、ε3者。提示:ε4基因可能是VD的危险因子,其机理可能与大脑血管性和变性性损害有关。
Apolipoprotein E(Apo E) gene polymorphism and vascular dementia (VD) were studied. The single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR SSCP) was used to detect ApoE genotype in 37 VD patients, 40 patients with nondemented cerebral infarction and 40 agematched controls. Meanwhile, the serum levels of lipids, lipoprotein and partial apolipoprotein were determined. The results showed that the frequency of ε4 allele in VD was significantly higher than that in agematched controls ( P< 0.01) and nondemented cerebral infarction controls ( P<0.05) . The patients with ε4 allele had high levels of TC and LDL C as compared with the groups with ε2 and ε3 alleles. It suggests that ε4 allele increases the risk for VD. The mechanism could involve the degenerative and vascular insults of brain.
