The Cumulative Effect of Gene-Gene Interactions Between GSTM1, CHRNA3, CHRNA5 and SOD3 Gene Polymorphisms Combined with Smoking on COPD Risk.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a multifactorial disorder which is affected by external and internal risk factors. People with no external risk factors may be significantly affected and develop pulmonary disease. The study aimed to define gene-gene and gene-environmental effects on COPD.

Methods

A case control study involved 181 COPD patients and 292 healthy individuals, with peripheral blood sampling and adequate questionnaires. Genotyping was done with various types of PCR design for GSTM1 (null del), GSTT1 (null del), EPHX1 (rs2234922 and rs1051740), GSTP1 (rs1695 and rs1138272), CHRNA3 (rs1051730 and rs12914385), CHRNA5 (rs16969968 and rs17486278), and SOD3 (rs1799895 and rs699473) gene polymorph
