Objective The aim of the present study was to explore the potential association between the leptin receptor (LEPR) gene polymorphisms and essential hypertension (EH) risk in the Northem Han Chinese population.Methods This study included 823 hypertensive subjects and 491 healthy control subjects in the Northern Han Chinese.Genotyping was performed to identify the Lysi09Arg,Gln223Arg and Lys656Asn polymorphisms of the LEPR gene.Results:Significant associations were found in dominant genetic model ([GG+AG] vs.AA),P=0.007,OR=3.697,95%CI [1.442-9.482]),and in homozygote comparison (GG vs.AA,P=0.005,OR=3.890,95%CI [1.501-10.077]) for the Gln223Arg polymorphism.C allelic frequencies of Lys656Asn polymorphism were also higher in the hypertensives than that in the normotensives subjects (P=0.044,OR=1.460,95%CI [1.011-2.108]).

急性冠脉综合症多由冠状动脉粥样硬化斑块破裂引起.由于斑块破裂或其他原因造成血栓形成,进而造成管腔迅速狭窄闭塞,是形成急性冠脉综合征的主要机制.因此评价冠状动脉粥样硬化斑块的易损性成为研究热点.斑块的易损性与其形态、组成成分及周围的血流动力学状态相关.对斑块易损性的研究也主要集中在对这些方面的评价.
