Sex-specific association of rs16996148 SNP in the NCAN/CILP2/PBX4 and serum lipid levels in the Mulao and Han populations

Abstract: BackgroundThe association of rs16996148 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in NCAN/CILP2/PBX4 and serum lipid levels is inconsistent. Furthermore, little is known about the association of rs16996148 SNP and serum lipid levels in the Chinese population. We therefore aimed to detect the association of rs16996148 SNP and several environmental factors with serum lipid levels in the Guangxi Mulao and Han populations.MethodA total of 712 subjects of Mulao nationality and 736 participants of Han nationality were ra… Show more

“…When the cohort was limited to white subjects only, there was a significant association between LDL and the lead SNP, rs140229040, which is located in the PBX homeobox 4 ( PBX4 ) gene ( P = 3.66 × 10 ‐7 ). SNPs in this gene are part of a large region in linkage disequilibrium, and this region has been previously identified as being associated with LDL cholesterol . We reported this finding previously with a meta‐analysis using the GOLDN cohort .…”

“…This study included 727 subjects of Mulao and 740 subjects of Han Chinese who were randomly selected from our previous stratified randomized samples [28, 29]. All subjects were rural agricultural workers residing in Luocheng Mulao Autonomous County, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, People's Republic of China.…”
