Replication of the Association Between Keratoconus and Polymorphisms in PNPLA2 and MAML2 in a Han Chinese Population

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
Keratoconus (KC) is a complex ocular disease that is affected by both genetic and non-genetic triggers. A recent genome-wide association study (GWAS) identified a genome-wide significant locus for KC in the region of PNPLA2 (rs61876744), as well as a ...

Body weights in Han Chinese populations

Chinese Science Bulletin, 2014
The body weights of 26,954 Han Chinese adults in 67 areas (16,503 in rural areas and 10,451 in urban areas) across China were measured from 2009 to 2013. The results showed that in China, the three areas (north China, northeast China, and Jianghuai Plain) were with the greatest body weight. Northwest Han Chinese populations were heavier.

Association between STAT4 gene polymorphism and type 2 diabetes risk in Chinese Han population

BMC Medical Genomics, 2021
Background Evidence from genetic epidemiology indicates that type 2 diabetes (T2D) has a strong genetic basis. Activated STAT4 has an inflammatory effect, and STAT4 is an important mediator of inflammation in diabetes.

POLG Mutations Are Probably Rare in the Han Chinese Population [PDF]

Chinese Medical Sciences Journal, 2020
Objective Mutations in polymerase gamma gene (POLG) are believed to be an important cause of early and juvenile onset of non-syndromic intractable epilepsy. The aim of this study is to investigate the incidence/prevalence of POLG pathogenic variants in epilespy patients of Han population through sequencing it.Methods Han Chinese patients with seizures ...

The LRRK2 Arg1628Pro variant is a risk factor for Parkinson's disease in the Chinese population [PDF]

, 2008
The c.G4883C variant in the leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) gene (protein effect: Arg1628Pro) has been recently proposed as a second risk factor for sporadic Parkinson's disease in the Han Chinese population (after the Gly2385Arg variant).
