Abstract
Background
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ2 (PPARγ2)Pro12Ala polymorphism has been reported to be associated with hypertension. However, relevant studies have shown inconsistent results.
Methods
To quantitatively evaluate the relationship between the PPARγ2Pro12Ala polymorphism and hypertension risk, we conducted a meta-analysis based on all available studies selected from Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang databases.
Results
In all, 13 studies were finally included in this meta-analysis. In the allelic model (Ala vs. Pro), the Ala allele of PPARγ2 Pro12Ala polymorphism was associated with hypertension (Odds Ratio [OR] = 0.723, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.607–0.861). Sensitivity analysis and exclusion of studies with poor quality scores or controls complicated by other diseases confirmed the validity of this association. Moreover, the PPARγ2Pro12Ala polymorphism was associated with hypertension in the codominant (OR = 0.710, 95% CI = 0.626–0.806), recessive (OR = 0.561, 95% CI = 0.418–0.754), and dominant (OR = 0.693, 95% CI = 0.577–0.833) models.
Conclusion
The Ala allele appears to have a protective effect against hypertension and a dominant function.
Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund
Der Peroxisom-Proliferator-aktivierter-Rezeptor-γ2(PPARγ2)-Pro12Ala-Polymorphismus galt als mit einer Hypertonie assoziiert. Allerdings zeigten relevante Studien inkonsistente Ergebnisse.
Methoden
Zur quantitativen Bewertung der Beziehung zwischen einem PPARγ2-Pro12Ala-Polymorphismus und dem Hypertonierisiko führten die Autoren eine Metaanalyse auf der Grundlage aller verfügbaren Studien aus den Datenbanken Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, Chinesische Nationale Wissensinfrastruktur-Datenbank und Wanfang durch.
Ergebnisse
In diese Metaanalyse wurden schließlich 13 Studien einbezogen. In dem Allelmodell (Ala vs. Pro) war das Ala-Allel des PPARγ2-Pro12Ala-Polymorphismus mit einer Hypertonie assoziiert (Odds Ratio [OR] = 0,723; 95%-Konfidenzintervall, 95%-KI: 0,607–0,861). Die Sensitivitätsanalyse und der Ausschluss von Studien mit schlechten Qualitätswerten oder von Studien mit Kontrollen, die durch andere Krankheiten kompliziert wurden, bestätigten die Stabilität einer solchen Assoziation. Außerdem war der PPARγ2-Pro12Ala-Polymorphismus im kodominanten (OR = 0,710; 95%-KI: 0,626–0,806), rezessiven (OR = 0,561; 95%-KI: 0,418–0,754) und dominanten (OR = 0,693; 95%-KI: 0,577–0,833) Modell mit einer Hypertonie assoziiert.
Schlussfolgerung
Das Ala-Allel scheint eine schützende Wirkung gegen Bluthochdruck aufzuweisen und in seiner Funktion dominant zu sein.
