摘要
为探讨血管紧张素转换酶(ACE)基因多态性与狼疮性肾炎(LN)之间的关系,应用聚合酶链反应(PCR)方法对144例LN患者和150名正常人ACE基因多态性的分布进行了观察,并结合临床病理及随访资料进行了分析。发现LN患者DD基因型显著高于正常人(P<0.01),而I基因型则明显低于正常人(P<0.01),DI基因型在两组人群中无统计学差异(P>0.05);ACE基因在DI基因型伴血尿、Ⅳ型LN、LN活动、新月体形成和中、重度间质肾小管损害的LN患者中明显增高,而DD基因型与LN患者临床、病理特征之间无相关关系;长期随访结果显示,肾功能恶化组患者DI基因型的发生频率明显高于肾功能稳定组,而DD基因型在两组之间无明显差异(P>0.05)。提示LN患者ACE基因DD基因型的发生频率明显高于正常人,DI基因型与LN病情严重性及不良预后相关。
The renin angiotensin system(RAS) is now well established as an important determinant in the progression of renal damage. The level of plasma angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE) is genetically determined and this gene effect is associated with insertion(I)/deletion(D) polymorphism in intron 16 of ACE gene.It has been reported that DD genotype of ACE gene is associated with a poor outcome in patients with IgA nephropathy and trend to develop renal damage in diabetic mellitus.In this study,the correlation between ACE gene I/D polymorphism and the clinical features of lupus nephritis(LN) was determined in 144 LN patients and 150 normal controls by PCR.72 LN patients were followed up for more than two years.It was found that the DD genotype was significantly higher in LN patients than in normal controls ( P <0.01),while the II genotype was much less in LN( P <0.01). There was no significant difference in DI genotype frequency between LN patients and normal control( P >0.05).Patients with hematuria,type Ⅳ LN,activation of LN,crescentic formation and severe tubulo interstitial lesions showed an excess of the DI genotype.However,the DD genotype was not associated with the clinical and pathological characteristics of LN.To assess whether ACE genotype influence the progression of LN, we compared the clinical and pathological findings in patients of different genotype subgroups. There was no significant difference in blood pressure,proteinuria,serum creatinine,active index of disease and crescentic formation at presentation among these groups. However,as patients were divided into two groups according to their rate of decline in renal function. We found that patients with progressive renal function damage had a higher frequency of DI genotype than those with stable renal function( P <0.01). It is conclude that patients with LN the DIated with the severity and genotype was associ the poor prognosis in patients with LN.
