Abstract:

Objective To study the correlation of 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (ALOX5AP)gene single nucleotide polymorphisms and carotid plaques in patients with ischemic cerebral stroke,and to provide a reference for the early diagnosis,treatment and pathogenesis of carotid plaque-related ischemic cerebral stroke. Methods A total of 737 patients with ischemic cerebral stroke were enrolled and classified into carotid plaque group and non-carotid plaque group. Multiple polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and gene sequencing were used to analyze the 8 locus polymorphisms of ALOX5AP gene. Results Triglyceride (TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C),systolic blood pressure and blood glucose(Glu) levels in carotid plaque group were higher than those in non-carotid plaque group (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance for the genotypes and allele frequencies of 8 loci of ALOX5AP gene between carotid plaque and non-carotid plaque groups (P>0.05). There was no statistical significance for 8 loci of ALOX5AP gene in the formation of 2 haplotypes between carotid plaque and non-carotid plaque groups (P>0.05). Conclusions ALOX5AP gene polymorphisms have no relationship with carotid plaque formation in ischemic cerebral stroke.
