Abstract:

A missense C/T polymorphism in exon 6 (the NCBI rsID is rs2227564) of the urokinase-type plas-minogen activator gene has been identified as a possible hot spot for Alzheimer’s disease risk. The present study analyzed urokinase-type plasminogen gene polymorphisms of rs2227564 with spo-radic Alzheimer’s disease by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Results showed that CC, CT and TT genotype distribution frequencies had significant differences between sporadic Alzheimer’s disease patients and healthy controls. In-depth analysis of the association between urokinase-type plasminogen gene rs2227564 polymorphisms and sporadic Alzheimer’s disease in-dicated that people with the C-positive genotype CC + CT were at a higher risk for developing sporadic Alzheimer’s disease. These results support the contribution of the polymorphisms of rs2227564 in the urokinase-type plasminogen gene to the pathogenesis of sporadic Alzheimer’s disease in the Han Chinese population.
