Association between PDE4D polymorphism and ischemic stroke in young population

Abstract EN

Objective: To explore the association between the polymorphisms of the phosphodiesterase (PDE) 4D gene (SNP83 and SNP87) and the risk of ischemic stroke (IS) in Chinese young population.

Methods: This study included 393 patients who were divided into IS group and non-IS group.

Semiconductor high-throughput sequencing technology and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed.

Results: In the case group, the frequency of CC genotype and C allele of the SNP83 gene was significantly higher than that in the control group.

There was no significant difference in genotype frequency distribution of SNP87 between the two groups.

Conclusion: We found an association between SNP83 and the risk of IS in Chinese young population from northern Henan province.

There was not a significant association between SNP87 and IS in Chinese young population.
