| Research Abstract |
To identify susceptible genes for essential hypertension, following four steps were conducted. 1. sample collection from all over Japan, 2. selection of candidate genes, 3. haplotype construction of the candidate genes, 4. haplotype association study of candidate genes.
For sample collection, clinical cardiologists, epidemiologists, doctors working on regional health check-up were recruited from all over Japan. Thanks to them, a total of 1600 samples from clinics and 2200 samples from epidemiological population in the region have been obtained. Of these samples, a total of 200 cases and 200 controls were extracted to initial genotyping. Candidate genes were selected from two sources. One was derived from the human homologue genes that significantly increased or decreased expression in the mouse kidneys after more than three months of high salt diet detected by way of microarray analysis. The other was extracted from the reported genes in literature that expressed mainly in human kidney. A total of 121genes were assigned for candidates. Haplotype was successfully constructed in 73 genes with SNPs from Japanese SNP database (J-SNP). Then SNPs of the 73 genes were genotyped with 888 hypertensive cases and 840 normotensive controls (samples from Ehime, Osaka and Nippon Universities were added to ours). Both contingency table method and haplotype inference method were employed to haplotype association study. Finally ten genes have been survived through the screening steps. Of these, three candidate genes have been analyzed now.
