Allelic polymorphism of F2, F5 and MTHFR genes in population of Ukraine

The frequencies of six important thrombophilic mutations in a population of the Czech Republic

The primary aim was to determine frequencies of mutations related to risk of venous thrombosis in healthy Caucasians in Central Bohemia. In a cohort of 1527 healthy individuals the frequency of risk alleles for the mutations FV Leiden and FII 20210G>A was 4.5% and 1.3%, respectively. Frequency of 4G PAI-1 allele was 55.5%. Genotype frequencies were: GG 91.03%, GA 8.91%, and AA 0.07% for FV Leiden; GG 97.45%, GA 2.49%, and AA 0.07% for FII 20210G>A; 4G/4G 30.26%, 4G/5G 50.56%, and 5G/5G 19.19% for PAI-1. Frequency of the risk allele A in polymorphism SERPINC1 (IVS +141G >A) was 11.3%, and frequencies of genotypes were as follows: GG 78.36%, GA 20.66%, and AA 0.98%. Frequency of the risk allele T for polymorphism GP6 13254T>C was 87.7%, and frequencies of genotypes were as follows: TT 77.14%, TC 21.15%, and CC 1.70%. Frequency of the risk allele A in polymorphism CYP4V2 (Lys259Gln) was 65.2%, and frequencies of genotypes were: CC 12.25%, CA 45.12 %, and AA 42.63%. All observed genotypes and alleles frequencies were without gender differences. Their occurrences confirm a relatively high prevalence of hereditary thrombophilia predisposition in the Czech Republic.

Nutrigenomic analysis of C677T mutation of MTHFR gene in Slovak population

Total of 124 individuals originated from Slovak Republic has been nutrignomically analysed. Analysis was focused to mutation C677T of MTHFR gene detection and analysis of mutant genotypes frequency. Observed frequency of allele 677C was 0.6998 and allelic frequency of mutant variant 677T was 0.3992. Genotype frequency of mutant heterozygotes with 71% activity of MTHFR enzyme was 0,391 and mutant homozygotes with 33% MTHFR enzyme activity was 0.153. Result shows 64% of Slovak has decreased activity of enzyme MTHFR, and 14.3% of Slovak has predisposition to cancer, cardio vascular diseases, loss of fertility and many others complications according to improper nutrition, low folic acid and B12 vitamin intake.
