In addition, homozygosity for the common haplotype TIC (which corresponded to the T, insertion, and C alleles at the three markers, rs1800764, insertion/deletion, and rs9896208, respectively) versus the CDT/TIC haplotype pair was associated with lower risk for development of persistent microalbuminuria (HR 0.49 [0.32-0.75], P = 0.0009) and severe nephropathy (0.41 [0.22-0.78], P = 0.006).
The results of this study indicate that the ACE I/D and β-FG T148C combination may result in significantly higher risk of IS in this Chinese population.
We performed an association study of patients with IgA nephropathy and matching control subjects to test whether the G38A polymorphism in the uteroglobin gene, the C2093T polymorphism in the megsin gene, or the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion polymorphism is associated with IgA nephropathy or rate of disease progression in patients with IgA nephropathy.
We studied retrospectively the role of angiotensinogen (AGT) M235T, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion (I/D), angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) A1166C, aldosterone syntase (CYP11B2) -344C/T and intron 2 W/C polymorphisms in conjunction with clinical and biochemical covariables on the rate of progression of renal insufficiency in a group of patients with ESRD of various etiologies.

To investigate the possible relationship between genetic risk factors and depression in AD, we assessed genetic polymorphisms reported to be associated with depression (MAOA VNTR, ACE 288bp Insertion/ Deletion, 5HTTLPR, COMT Val158Met, BDNF Val66Met, TPH1 A218C, HTR2A T102C, P2RX7 Q460R, FKBP5 rs1360780 and CRHR1 rs242941) in a cross-sectional study on 246 AD patients with or without clinically significant major depressive disorder (MDD) according to DSM-IV.

The low activity variants of the 5-HTT-linked polymorphic region in the serotonin transporter gene and the Met-allele of a single nucleotide polymorphism (Val66Met) in the gene encoding brain derived neurotrophic factor were independently associated with the presence of stressful life events prior to onset of depression, also when corrected for the effect of age, gender, marital status, personality disorder, neuroticism, and severity of depressive symptoms at the time of interview.

Significant associations between AD and MDD have been found for three polymorphisms mainly in females (TPH1 A218C, MAOA VNTR and BDNF Val66Met) and one polymorphism in the total population only (FKBP5 rs1360780).
We report a Spanish family with muscle glycogen phosphorylase (PYGM) deficiency (McArdle's disease) harbouring a novel compound genotype (A659D/L586P).
The frequencies of FABP2 Ala54Ala, Ala54Thr and Thr54Thr in T2DM cases were 18.39%, 66.66%, 14.94% and 22.72%, 61.36%, 15.90% in controls, respectively.
Analyses identified MMP-9 p-2502 single nucleotide polymorphism (odds ratio [OR], 0.54; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.31-0.94; P = .029) as a significant confound discriminating between control vs slow-growth AAA, MMP-9 D165N (OR, 0.49; 95% CI, 0.26-0.95; P = .035) and LRP1 (OR, 4.99; 95% CI, 1.13-22.1; P = .034) between control vs aggressive-growth AAAs, and methyltetrahydrofolate reductase (OR, 2.99; 95% CI, 1.01-8.86; P = .048), MMP-9 p-2502 (OR, 2.19; 95% CI, 1.05-4.58; P = .037), and LRP1 (OR, 4.96; 95% CI, 1.03-23.9; P = .046) as the statistically significant confounds distinguishing slow-growth AAAs vs aggressive-growth AAAs.
