birth defects ventricular septal defect microRNA NOTCH1 gene gene regulation genetic polymorphism

摘要

Birth defects, the ventricular septal defect in particular, have major public health significance. There is evidence that genetic factors play a role in VSD risk. We report here our findings on the relationship between VSD and microRNA -3691-3p target sequence single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the 3′ untranslated region of the NOTCH1 gene. Functional SNPs in NOTCH1 target sequence were screened from the SNP database. A case–control study in a large Chinese Han population sample of 350 childre...更多

Birth defects, the ventricular septal defect in particular, have major public health significance. There is evidence that genetic factors play a role in VSD risk. We report here our findings on the relationship between VSD and microRNA -3691-3p target sequence single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the 3′ untranslated region of the NOTCH1 gene. Functional SNPs in NOTCH1 target sequence were screened from the SNP database. A case–control study in a large Chinese Han population sample of 350 children with VSD and 430 healthy controls examined the association between rs6563 SNPs and VSD. NOTCH1 wild and mutant recombinant expression vectors were constructed by the luciferase reporter gene system. The effects of miRNA on gene regulatory effects were also analyzed. The allelic distributions at the locus rs6563 showed statistically significant susceptibility to VSD (odds ratio [OR] = 1.502, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.209–1.866, p A genetic variation appears to be associated with congenital VSD through gene regulatory effects of miR-3691-3p on the NOTCH1 gene. Further studies in other population samples are called for diagnostics and public health innovation in relation to birth defects.收起
