| Abstract | Pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) is a common clinical problem that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. We investigated the role of protein C polymorphism in patients with PTE in order to find out the correlation between its polymorphism and the susceptibility of the Chinese population to develop PTE. We used a case-control study design. Sixty-three consecutive patients with PTE were enrolled as the investigated group and 86 healthy people as the control group. Two novel polymorphisms, C/T at the position of 2405 and A/G at the position of 2418in the protein C gene promoter region were detected through PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. The results suggested that the genotype frequencies of the two single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) when combined together were not significantly different between the case and control group (P > 0.05). However, the allele frequency of the C2405T SNP was significantly different between the case and control group. The frequency of T allele in the PTE group was higher when compared to the control, whereas the frequency of C allele was lower (P < 0.05). These results suggested that there were six different kinds of genotype distribution (TA-TA, TA-CA, TA-CG, CG-CG, CA-CG, CA-CA) and three different kinds of haplotype (TA, CG, CA). Our result showed that the frequency of the TA haplotype was significantly higher in the patients suffering from PTE (P < 0.05). These results suggest that the two polymorphisms present in the control region of the protein C gene are associated with an increased susceptibility to PTE in the Chinese population. The 2405T allele may be a possible risk factor for the development of PTE, whereas the C allele may probably be a protective factor of PTE Moreover, the TA haplotype may also be associated with an increased risk for developing PTE. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
