Effect of PRDX6 gene polymorphism on susceptibility to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in the Chinese Han population.

ABSTRACT:

Background

To explore the relationship of peroxiredoxin6 (PRDX6) tag-single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with susceptibility to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in the Chinese Han population.

Methods

A total of 502 patients with COPD and 481 healthy controls from nine hospitals in China were enrolled in this study. The PRDX6 tag-SNPs were identified by linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis in 30 healthy controls. The associations between identified tag-SNPs and COPD risk were further evaluated.

Results

Four PRDX6 tag-SNPs, including rs7314, rs34619706, rs33951697, and rs4382766, were identified in 30 healthy controls. Moreover, in the allele model, there was no statistical difference in locus in PRDX6 between patients with COPD and healthy controls (P >
