Association of TGFBR2 rs6785358 Polymorphism with Increased Risk of Congenital Ventricular Septal Defect in a Chinese Population
AssociationN=3,000Xiang-Ting Li et al.(2015)· Pediatric Cardiology

This association study examined 141 tag SNPs in 8 transforming growth factor-beta (TGFβ) signaling pathway genes (SMAD2, SMAD3, SMAD4, TGFB1, TGFB2, TGFB3, TGFBR1, TGFBR2) in 3,000 Taiwanese subjects (2,467 without metabolic syndrome, 533 with) to assess associations with metabolic syndrome (MetS). The study found significant associations with SMAD2 rs11082639 (OR=1.66, 95% CI=1.32-2.08, P=1.4×10⁻⁵ in additive model) and TGFBR2 rs3773651 (OR=1.50, 95% CI=1.04-2.15, P=0.0285 in additive model), which remained significant after Bonferroni correction. SMAD2 rs11082639 was specifically associated with high waist circumference. Gene-gene interaction analysis revealed a significant interaction between SMAD2 and TGFBR2 variants influencing MetS risk.

About ZPR1

The protein encoded by this gene is found in the cytoplasm of quiescent cells but translocates to the nucleolus in proliferating cells. The encoded protein interacts with survival motor neuron protein (SMN1) to enhance pre-mRNA splicing and to induce neuronal differentiation and axonal growth. Defects in this gene or the SMN1 gene can cause spinal muscular atrophy. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]
