Изучить ассоциации полиморфизма гена альдостеронсинтазы с величиной концентрации альдостерона плазмы (КАП), степенью артериальной гипертензии (АГ) и ремоделированием миокарда левого желудочка (ГЛЖ) у больных с V стадией хронической болезни почек (ХБП), получающих программный гемодиализ (ГД). ПАЦИЕНТЫ И МЕТОДЫ. Обследовано 84 пациента с V стадией ХБП. Средний возраст обследованных – 51±15 лет. Средняя длительность терапии ГД – 7,7±0,5 лет. У 55 пациентов (65,5 %) течение основного заболевания осложнилось развитием артериальной гипертензии (АГ). Средняя длительность АГ составила 12,9±1 год. Концентрацию альдостерона плазмы (КАП) определяли иммуноферментным методом. Состояние левого желудочка (ЛЖ) оценивалось по объему и толщине стенок ЛЖ в диастолу (КДР, см), массе миокарда левого желудочка (ММЛЖ, г), индексированной к площади поверхности тела (ИММЛЖ, г/м²), отношению толщина стенки/диаметр полости левого желудочка (ОТС). Тип ремоделирования определялся как нормальная геометрия, концентрическая гипертрофия ЛЖ, эксцентрическая гипертрофия ЛЖ и концентрическое ремоделирование. Аллели полиморфного маркера – 344Т/С гена CYP11B2 идентифицировали с помощью полимеразной цепной реакции с последующей обработкой продуктов амплификации рестриктазой. Статистическая обработка данных производилась с помощью пакета прикладных программ STATISTICA 6.0. Различия признавали достоверными при p&lt;0,05. РЕЗУЛЬТАТЫ. У 21 пациента (25%) определен С/С генотип, у 33 – (39,3%) – С/Т генотип и у 30 – (35,7%) – Т/Т генотип. У всех пациентов, независимо от нуклеотидного полиморфизма, отмечено резкое повышение КАП (у пациентов с С/С генотипом – 653,08±186,61, у пациентов с С/Т генотипом – 454,92±78,77 и у пациентов с Т/Т генотипом – 587,94±128,09 пг/мл, при норме 10-160). Пациенты с генотипом С/С имеют более высокий уровень САД (141,1±2,8 мм рт. ст.) и ДАД (91,3±1,5 мм рт.ст.) против 135,6±2,1 (р&lt;0,01) и 86,8±1,4 у пациентов с С/Т генотипом (р&lt;0,05) и 132,8±1,9 и 81,1±1,1 (р&lt;0,01) у пациентов с Т/Т генотипом. Кроме того, у пациентов с С/С генотипом отмечена большая толщина МЖП (1,39±0,09) против 1,24±0,05 у пациентов с С/Т генотипом и 1,24±0,03 (р&lt;0,05) у пациентов с Т/Т генотипом, ММЛЖ – 312,1±34,05 против 270,43±26,75 и 238,47±16,76 (р&lt;0,05) соответственно, и ИММЛЖ – 186,2±21,25 против 270,43±26,75 и 238,47±16,76 (р&lt;0,01) соответственно. При этом наибольший процент концентрической ГЛЖ (61,1%) соответствовал носителям С/С генотипа. ЗАКЛЮЧЕНИЕ. Ассоциации нуклеотидного полиморфизма с величиной КАП не выявлено. Носители С/С генотипа альдостеронсинтазы имеют достоверно более высокие цифры АД, большую массу миокарда ЛЖ, индекс массы миокарда ЛЖ и самый высокий процент концентрической ГЛЖ, что сопряжено с более неблагоприятным прогнозом.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>THE AIM of the investigations was to study the association of aldosterone synthase gene polymorphism with the value of concentration of plasma aldosterone (CPA), the degree of arterial hypertension (AH) and left ventricle myocardium remodeling (LVR) in patients with the V stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD) on program hemodialysis (HD). PATENTS AND METHODS. An examination of 84 patients with the V stage of CKD was carried on. Mean age of the patients was 51± 15 years. Mean duration of HD therapy was 7.7 ±0.5 years. In 55 patients (65.5%) the course of the main disease was complicated by the development of arterial hypertension (AH). Mean duration of AH was 12.9±1 years. CPA was determined by an immune-enzymatic method. The state of the left ventricle (LV) was assessed by the volume and thickness of LV walls in diastole (cm), LV myocardium mass (LVMM, g) indexed to the body surface area (ILVMM, g/m²), the ratio of the wall thickness/diameter of the LV cavity. The remodeling type was determined as normal geometry, LV concentric hypertrophy, LV excentrtic hypertrophy and concentric remodeling. The polymorphous marker alleles – 344T/C of gene CYP11B2 were identified using the polymerase chain reaction. The amplification products were treated with restrictase. The data obtained were processed using the application package STATISTICA 6.0. The distinctions were considered reliable at p&lt;0.05. RESULTS. In 21 patients (25%) the C/C genotype was determined, in 33 patients (39.3%) – C/T genotype and in 30 (35.7%) – the T/T genotype. In all the patients, irrespective of the nucleotide polymorphism, a sharp elevation of CPA was noted (in C/C genotype patients – 653.08±186.61, in C/T genotype patients – 454.92±78.77 and in T/T genotype patients – 587.94± 128.09 pg/ml, at the norm 10[<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="cit1">1</xref>]160). C/C genotype patients have a higher level of SAP (141.1±2.8 mmHg) and DAD (91.3±1.5 Hg mm) compared to 135.6±2.1 (p&lt;0.01) and 86.8±1.4 in C/T genotype patients (p&lt;0.05) and 132.8± 1.9 and 81.1± 1.1 (p&lt;0.01) in patients with T/T genotype. Furthermore, the patients with C/C genotype have greater thickness of the interventricular septum (1.39±0.09) compared to 1.24± 0.05 in patients with C/T genotype and 1.24±0.03 (p&lt;0.05) in patients with T/T genotype, LVMM – 312.1±34.05 compared to 270.43±26.75 and 238.47±16.76 (p&lt;0.05) respectively, and ILVMM – 186.2±21.25 compared to 270.43±26.75 and 238.47±16.76 (p&lt;0.01) respectively. The greatest percentage of LV concentric hypertrophy (61.1%) corresponded to the C/C genotype carriers. CONCLUSION. An association of nucleotide polymorphism with the CPA value was not revealed. The carriers of the C/C genotype of aldesterone synthase have reliably higher AP, greater mass of the LV myocardium, index of the LV myocardium mass and the highest percentage of concentric LVH which is associated with a more unfavorable prognosis.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>полиморфизм гена альдостеронсинтазы</kwd><kwd>альдостерон</kwd><kwd>артериальная гипертензия</kwd><kwd>гипертрофия ле­вого желудочка</kwd><kwd>хроническая болезнь почек</kwd><kwd>программный гемодиализ</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>aldesterone synthase gene  polymorphism</kwd><kwd>aldosterone</kwd><kwd>arterial  hypertension</kwd><kwd>left ventricle  hypertrophy</kwd><kwd>chronic  kidney disease</kwd><kwd>program hemodialysis</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Foster RH, MacFarlane CH, Bustamante MO.
