Outline of Final Research Achievements

A single nucleotide polymorphism of the adenosine deaminase, RNA-specific (ADAR) gene “rs2805533 (A/G) ” was significantly associated with serum triglyceride(TG) level, and a criteria for metabolic syndrome (TG≧150mg/dl and/or HDL < 40mg/dl ) in 70 ± 1 elderly. Three years later, rs2805533 was also significantly associated with serum TG level, serum high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol level, and a criteria for metabolic syndrome (TG≧150mg/dl and/or HDL < 40mg/dl ) in 73 ± 1 elderly. In this study population, the subject with G allele had higher risk for dyslipidemia. In this cohort analysis, rs2805533 was significantly associated with the delta of HDL cholesterol level (ΔHDL) between 70(±1) and 73(±1) years, and the subject with GG genotypes had lower HDL cholesterol level than AA and AG genotypes.
