Polymorphisms in GCKR , SLC17A1 and SLC22A12 were associated with phenotype gout in Han Chinese males: a case–control study
2015
Gout is a common arthritic disease resulting from elevated serum uric acid (SUA) level. A large meta-analysis including 28,141 individuals identified nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with altered SUA level in a Caucasian population. However, raised SUA level alone is not sufficient for the development of gout arthritis and most of these SNPs have not been studied in a Han Chinese population. Here, we performed a case–control association analysis to investigate the relationship between these SUA correlated SNPs and gout arthritis in Han Chinese.
