Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a significant health care problem worldwide and is characterized by increased fasting glucose and obesity. Resistin is a protein hormone produced both by adipocytes and immunocompetent cells, including those residing in adipose tissue, and is believed to modulate glucose tolerance and insulin action. This study examined the association of resistin gene polymorphisms, rs1862513 and rs3745368, and related haplotypes with the development of metabolic syndrome in a Han Chinese population. This case-control study was performed on 3792 subjects, including 1771 MetS cases and 2021 healthy controls from the Jilin province of China. Metabolic syndrome was defined according to the criteria of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). Logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the relationship between gene polymorphism and MetS. Our results showed that there were no significant associations between MetS and the genotype distributions in four kinds of inheritance models, allele frequencies, and related haplotypes of resistin gene polymorphisms rs1862513 and rs3745368 (allpvalues > 0.05). Based on our study findings, we concluded that mutations in resistin genes are not associated with the presence of MetS in a Han Chinese population from Jilin province in China.

Abstract Background Schizophrenia is a polygenic disease; however, the specific risk genetic variants of schizophrenia are still largely unknown. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is important genetic factor for the susceptibility of schizophrenia. Investigating individual candidate gene contributing to disease risk remains important. Methods In a case-control study, five SNPs located in 6p21.3-p23.1 including rs2021722 in human leukocyte antigen (HLA) locus and rs107822, rs383711, rs439205 and rs421446 within the upstream of microRNA-219a-1 were genotyped in 454 schizophrenia patients and 445 healthy controls to investigate the possible association between the loci and schizophrenia in a Han Chinese population. Results Our results showed significant associations between the rs2021722 and schizophrenia in allele (A vs. G: adjusted OR = 1.661, 95%CI = 1.196–2.308), co-dominant (AG vs. GG: OR = 1.760, 95%CI = 1.234–2.510) and dominant genetic model (AG + AA vs. GG: OR = 1.756, 95%CI = 1.237–2.492), respectively. Haplotype analysis showed that TGGT and CAAC were protective factor for schizophrenia compared with TAAC haplotype (OR = 0.324, 95% CI = 0.157–0.672; OR = 0.423, 95% CI = 0.199–0.900). Conclusions These findings indicate that rs2021722 in HLA locus might be involved in pathogenesis of schizophrenia and that genotypes AG and allele A of the locus are risk factors for schizophrenia in the Han Chinese population, confirming the association between immune system and schizophrenia.
