Abstract:

Objective:To investigate the relationship between mononucleotide's polymorphism of IFN-γ gene's 874 site and the
susceptibility to dilated cardiomyopathy. Methods:In this case-control study, we have collected venous blood of 113 patients with
DCM(patients group)and of 100 healthy Han adults(control group)from the first affiliated hospital of Dali University. PCR-SSP
technology and agarose gel electrophoresis were applied to detect mononucleotide's IFN-γ +874T/A polymorphism of the two groups.
Results:There were significant differences between the patient group whose IFN-γ +874TT genotypic frequency distribution was
30.97% and the health control group with 8.00%(χ2=17.631,P<0.001). The distributive frequencies of T allele in the patient group
and control group were 40.27% and 22.00% respectively. There were statistically significant differences between them(χ2=16.352,P<
0.001). Conclusion:There may be a close relationship between IFN-γ +874A/T polymorphism and the susceptibility to DCM.

Key words: dilated cardiomyopathy, IFN-γ, gene polymorphism
