Abstract
Objective To investigate the association between RNF213 rs6565666 polymorphisms and intracranial cystic aneurysms in patients from Guangdong province. Methods Two hundred and fifty patients with intracranial cystic aneurysms, admitted to and conformed by digital substraction angiography (DSA) in our hospital from February 2016 to October 2018, were selected as experimental group; and 250 patients without intracranial aneurysms conformed by DSA, CT angiography or magnetic resonance angiography at the same time period were used as control group. The genotypes of rs6565666 locus of RNF213 gene were detected by polymerase chain reaction-ligase detection reaction (PCR-LDR). Results As compared with those in the control group, percentages of AG and AA genotypes were significantly higher and percentage of GG genotype was statistically higher at rs6565666 locus of patients from the experimental group (P 0.05). Conclusion RNF213 gene rs6565666 polymorphism is associated with intracranial cystic aneurysms in patients from Guangdong province. Key words: RNF213 gene; Intracranial cystic aneurysm; Genotype
