Objective: To investigate the effect of E-selectin A561C (S128R) polymorphism on blood pressure.
Methods: 347 essential hypertensive patients (male 163 and female 184, age 46.08 +/- 12.49 y, and body mass index 26.13 +/- 3.14 kg/m(2)) and 315 normal controls (male 93 and female 222, age 42.21 +/- 14.67 y, and body mass index 25.66 +/- 3.19 kg/m(2)) were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Phenotypic measurements included blood pressure, blood glucose, serum triglycerides, serum total, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, serum uric acid, blood urea nitrogen, nitric oxide, endothelin, angiotensin I, and II and plasma aldosterone.
Results: The frequencies of the AC and CC genotypes (6.92%) and C allele (4.76%) were significantly (P = 0.029 and 0.013) higher in hypertensive patients than normal controls (3.17% and 2.22%). The relative risk of hypertension associated with the C allele was 2.197 (95% CI: 1.164-4.144). Both diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure were higher in C allele carriers than AA subjects (P = 0.049 and 0.024). Furthermore, C allele carriers, compared with AA subjects, had higher concentrations of blood glucose, and total and LDL cholesterol (P = 0.031, 0.046, and 0.003) and lower concentrations of nitric oxide (P = 0.036).
Conclusion: The E-selectin A561C (S128R) polymorphism might affect blood pressure in Chinese.

Background: Diabetes is associated with endothelial cell dysfunction. E-selectin is an endothelial cell adhesion molecule, which is bound for endothelial cell activation. E-selectin gene+A561C polymorphism is associated with many different disorders: essential hypertension, stroke, angina pectoris, coronary heart disease, etc.

Background: Over the years, a number of published studies showed that E-Selectin gene rs5361 (S128R, Ser128Arg, A561C) variants were associated with the risk of ischemic stroke (IS). However, the results of those case-control studies were still equivocal. Therefore, we performed this meta-analysis to clarify the relationship between E-Selectin gene rs5361 polymorphism and IS risk.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of rs1805193, rs5361, and rs5355 E-selectin gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with the risk of developing subclinical atherosclerosis (SA) in a group of Mexicans individuals. SNPs were determined by TaqMan genotyping assays in a group of 287 individuals with SA and 688 healthy controls. Under different models, the T allele of the 5'UTR G98 T (rs1805193) (OR = 1.

Published genetic association studies have produced controversial results regarding the association of SELE gene polymorphisms (A516C and G98T) and CAD susceptibility. We therefore chose to perform a meta-analysis to determine the association.Twenty-seven eligible articles were identified through electronic databases, providing 5170 CAD cases and 4996 controls.

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between E-selectin +G98T, +A561C polymorphisms and different progression in Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection Xinjiang Han population, also to determine the HBV DNA copies and pre-S1 antigen (preS1Ag) in this population. Polymorphisms of the E-selectin gene in 200 chronic HBV infection (61 cases of chronic HBV carriers, chronic hepatitis B 75, liver cirrhosis 43, liver cancer 21) and 200 healthy controls were detected using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the levels of HBV DNA.
