Abstract:Objective To investigate the relationship between polymorphisms of PPARγ gene(rs1801282, rs3856806 and rs4684847) and hypertension in Uygur. Methods Polymorphisms of PPARγ gene,rs1801282, rs3856806 and rs4684847, were identified in 145 hypertension patients and 165 healthy volunteersby matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). Results(1)Frequencies of rs1801282 CC genotype and C allele were 75.9% and 87.2% in hypertension grouprespectively, which were higher than those in control group (63.6% and 79.7%, respectively, P < 0.05);(2) After risk analysis, individuals with GG and CG genotypes of rs1801282 had 0.273 and 0.594 times higherrisks to develop hypertension than those with CC genotype respectively , while individuals with C allele had 1.742times higher risk to develop hypertension than those with G allele ; (3) Multivariate logistic regression analysisshowed that polymorphism of rs1801282, overweight and obesity were risk factors for the incidence ofhypertension. (4) No significant differences in both frequencies of rs3856806 and rs4684847 genotypes andallele were noted between hypertension group and control group (P > 0.05). (5) SBP in rs1801282 CC genotypecarriers was higher than in CG / GG gene ones, whereas TC was opposite (P < 0.05). Conclusions In theUygur, individuals with CC genotype and C allele at rs1801282 of PPARγ gene are at higher risk ofhypertension. Polymorphism of rs3856806 and rs4684847 may be irrelevant with hypertension in the Uygur.
