BDNF Gene Frequency Distribution in Li and Han Ethnic Groups in Hainan Province and Its Comparison with Other Countries and Regions

摘要

Objective: To explore the distribution characteristics of BDNF gene frequency in Li and Han nationalities in Hainan province. Methods: In June 2018-2019 and march to the people’s hospital of Hainan province health volunteers, 152 cases (Li 80, Han, 72), the application of polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method to detect the polymorphism of BDNF gene (rs6265), and compared with other countries and regions of ethnic comparison between BDNF gene frequency distribution. Results: No statistical difference was found in rs6265 genotype distribution of BDNF gene in Li and Han ethnic groups (P = 0.3358, P = 0.0892, P = 0.1549). Comparison of BDNF allele frequency between Li and other ethnic groups showed statistically significant differences with other ethnic groups in China and Europe (P = 0.0384, P = 0.0000), but not statistically significant differences with Japan (P = 0.1164). Conclusion: BDNF gene (rs6265) has polymorphism in both Li and Han ethnic groups in Hainan Province. Compared with ethnic groups in other countries and regions, the polymorphism distribution is ethnically different.
