Impact of I/D polymorphism of ACE gene on risk of development and course of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Abstract: IntroductionChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) affects more than 10% of the world's population over 40 years of age. The main exogenous risk factor is cigarette smoking; however, only 20% of smokers develop COPD, indicating that some other factors, e.g. genetic, may play an important role in the disease pathogenesis. Recent research indicates that ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme) may be a susceptibility gene for asthma or COPD. The aim of our study was to determine the influence of I/D (insertion/… Show more

“…One study was rejected because it was an animal experiment, and another article was not included in the meta-analysis because it was not designed as a case–control study. Finally, we confirmed 15 eligible studies (1,279 cases and 1,356 controls) 7 , 10 , 11 , 13 , 15 25 for the COPD subgroup and four studies for the PH subgroup, and we included them in the current meta-analysis. Twelve articles were in English, 7 , 10 , 11 , 13 , 15 20 , 23 , 25 and three were in Chinese.…”

“…Our initial search of three public databases identified 42 articles published in the English language, and only 16 of them were eligible for analysis. 6 9 , 13 24 There were 12 articles (12 studies including 2113 patients and 8786 controls) that incorporated data on the risk of the ACE gene I/D polymorphism for COPD, and eight articles (14 studies including 11,664 subjects) that incorporated data on the changes of either FEV 1 or FEV 1 /FEV or circulating ACE across the genotypes of this polymorphism.…”

“…Individuals with allele C for rs4588 in the GC gene showed a higher exacerbation frequency, higher susceptibility to COPD, emphysema, and a tendency toward a rapid decrease of airflow obstruction 168 . The minor allele of SNP rs2227744G > A in the proteaseactivated receptor 1 (F2R) was associated with protection against frequent exacerbations 169 , while genotype DD of the gene ACE was associated with a lower risk in males 170 .…”
