[Association between two SNPs of ISL1 gene and congenital heart disease in children].

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between 2 SNPs of ISL1 gene and congenital heart disease (CHD) in Tianjin Han children. METHODS: Polymerase chain reaction and DNA sequencing were used to detect 2 SNPs at rs41268421 and rs1017 sites of ISL1 gene, including 35 CHD cases and 30 non-CHD controls. Differences of genotype and allele frequencies of rs41268421 and rs1017 sites were compared, and haplotype...
