The genotypes of the variants were identified by the polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism （PCR-RFLP） methods. Results 46 A〉G, 79 C〉G and 659 C〉G polymorphisms were common in the Kazakan population, but 491 C〉T was a mutation （frequency ofT allele was only 0.003） and only found in EH group. The fxequency distributions of genotypes and alleles for 659 C〉G between the EH and control groups was significantly different （P〈0.05）, while those for 46 A〉G and 79 C〉G polymorphisms were not statistically different. Logistic regression analysis suggested that the G allele of 659 C〉G polymorphism was a risk factor for hypertension （minor allele vs common homo; odds ratio, 13.240, 95% CI, 4.052-43.274; P〈0.05）. Covariance analysis showed that systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels in GG＋CG group of 659 C〉G were significantly higher than those in the CC group, but no significant difference of blood pressure were found between common homo and minor allele for 46 A〉G and 79C〉G polymorphisms. Haplotype analysis showed that two hyplotypes, HI： 46A-79C-491C-523C（48%）and H5：46A-79C-491C-659G, were associated with EH.Conelusion ADRB2 genetic variants may play independent roles in the molecular genetic mechanism of EH in Xinjiang Kazakans population （d Geriatr Cardio12010; 7：52-57）.展开更多

Methods: Change of α1--adrenergic receptor (al AR ) in lung tissllesduring endotoxin--induced rat acute lung injury was measured with radioligand biding assay. The effects ofanisodamine on pulmonary α1--AR and phospholipase A2 (PLA2 ) were observed. Results: 1. 4 h after theendotoxin injection, there was a significant decrease in the maximal binding capacity of α1--AR by 34% ascompared with the control group. meanwhile elevated activity of PLA2 in rat lung and reduction of thephospholipids content of cell membrane was found. 2. Anisodamine could attenuate endotoxin--induced acutelung injury in rats. Conclusion: This effect might be related to anisodamine’s blockage of α1--AR andsuppression of PLA2, prevention of membranous phospholipids from degradation. and the reduction ofarachidonic acid release.展开更多
