Abstract A severe hemophilia A family has been studied with the factor VIII (F.VIII) intragenic XbaI polymorphism. During this investigation, a new variant hybridization pattern was observed with important implications concerning the non-F.VIII DNA sequences detected by the probe from intron 22, p482.6. Both Southern hybridization studies and direct analysis of amplified DNA demonstrated a variant form of the non-F.VIII sequences. This variant DNA sequence has not been responsible for any detectable phenotypic abnormalities, and likely represents a polymorphic change. In conclusion, this study has shown that the non- F.VIII sequences detected with the probe p482.6 are situated on the X chromosome, they seem to be present in two copies, and either or both copies infrequently possess a polymorphic XbaI site or a partial deletion.

Background. Certain studies have previously explored the association between the estrogen receptor-α(ER-α) gene polymorphisms and periodontitis susceptibility, although the current results are controversial. The present study, using meta-analysis, aimed to investigate the nature of the genetic susceptibility of the ER-αfor developing periodontitis.Methods. A comprehensive literature search of PubMed, Embase, CNKI, and Wanfang databases was conducted up to January 8, 2015. Statistical manipulation was performed using Stata version 13.0 software. Odds ratios (ORs) and corresponding 95% confident intervals (CIs) were calculated to estimate the association in five genetic models.Results. A total of 17 eligible case-control studies from seven identified publications consisting of nine studies for the XbaI polymorphism and eight studies for the PvuII polymorphism were included in the meta-analysis. We found elevated risk of periodontitis in XbaI XX genotype carriers. Moreover, subgroup analyses demonstrated increased risk for chronic periodontitis of XbaI XX genotype carriers, specifically in the Chinese Han female population. No significant association was observed between PvuII polymorphism and periodontitis.Conclusion. Current evidence indicated that the homozygote (XX) genotype of ER-αgene XbaI polymorphism, but not PvuII mutation, may increase the risk of chronic periodontitis, specifically in the Chinese Han female population.
