description | Background &Aim: Previous studies have suggested genetic factors are involved in the development of gout. We performed a case-control study to investigate the genetic association between CARD8 rs2043211 polymorphism and gout. Methods: A total of 396 male patients with gout and 403 age- and sex- matched healthy controls were included in this study. Genotyping was performed using TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assays. An association analysis was carried out using the χ2 test. The genotype-phenotype analysis was also conducted. Results: The genotype distribution of CARD8 rs2043211 polymorphism confirmed to HWE in the controls (P = 0.27). There was an obvious difference in the genotype distribution of CARD8 rs2043211 polymorphism between cases and controls (P = 0.017). In addition, there was an obvious association between CARD8 rs2043211 polymorphism and gout under the recessive comparison model (AA vs. TT/TA: OR = 0.65, 95%CI 0.47-0.88, P = 0.006). Patients carrying genotype TT of CARD8 rs2043211 polymorphism had higher triglycerides levels compared to those carrying the AA genotype (2.77±2.08 mmol/L vs. 2.07±1.15 mmol/L, P = 0.01). Patients with the TT genotype also had significantly higher systolic blood pressure compared with those with the AA genotype (142.11±21.10 mmHg vs. 135.38±14.66 mmHg, P = 0.03). Patients carrying TT genotype also had an increased risk of renal calculus compared with those carrying the AA genotype. Conclusion: CARD8 rs2043211 polymorphism is significantly associated with susceptibility to gout in Chinese Han males. |
