Abstract： Objective To explore the race- and gender-specific distribution characteristics of rs1891385A/C and rs10975519C/T polymorphism of interleukin-33 (IL-33) gene in Zhuang and Han populations. Methods The polymorphisms of rs1891385A/C and rs10975519C/T of IL-33 gene in 283 subjects from Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region were analyzed with single base extension (PCR-SEB) and DNA sequencing to analyze the differences in their distribution frequencies between genders and between Zhuang and Han populations. Results Three genotypes (AA, AC and CC) were found in rs1891385A/C with frequencies of 64.3% , 32.5% and 3.2% , respectively. The genotype and allele frequencies of rs1891385A/C in this Guangxi population showed no significant difference between Zhuang and Han subpopulations and between genders (P>0.05), but differed significantly from those in European and African black populations (P<0.01). Three genotypes (CC, CT and TT) were identified in rs10975519C/T with frequencies of 34.3% , 53.0% , and 12.7% , respectively, showing no significant ethnic or gender-specific differences in this population (P>0.05). The genotype frequency of rs10975519C/T in this population differed significantly from those in the European and Japanese populations (P<0.01), but the allele frequencies only showed significant differences from those in the European population (P<0.01). Conclusion rs1891385A/C and rs10975519C/T polymorphisms of IL-33 gene show a race-specific difference.

Abstract： Objective To study the distribution of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of arginine-vasopressin (AVP) gene rs66818855 and rs1078152 in Chinese Guangxi healthy population in comparison with that in different ethnic populations. Methods Polymerase chain reaction-single base extension (PCR-SBE) and DNA sequencing were used to detect the allele and genotype frequencies of AVP gene among 303 Chinese healthy individuals in Guangxi, China, and the results were compared with the reported frequencies in 4 other populations (HapMap-CEU, HapMap-YRI, HapMap-JPT, and HapMap-HCB) from Human Genome Project group (HapMap) data. Results We found significant AVP gene polymorphisms in this Guangxi healthy population. The frequencies of allele and genotype of AVP gene rs66818855 and rs1078152 polymorphisms in this Guangxi population differed significantly from those in HapMap-CEU population (P<0.01), and allele frequencies of AVP gene rs66818855 polymorphism differed significantly from those in HapMap-YRI populations (P<0.05). Conclusion The distribution pattern of AVP gene polymorphisms in this Guangxi population is significantly different from that in other ethnic populations, which might account for the difference in the morbidity of AVP-related disease among different ethnic groups and may have important indications in the study of population genetics and anthropology
