OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to investigate the function of uromodulin (UMOD) gene
and its effect on inflammatory cytokines in serum of essential hypertension
patients. METHODS: The online database and software of computer were used for
bioinformatics analysis on UMOD gene as well as the structure and function of its
encoding proteins. Moreover, radioimmunoassay and enzyme linked immunosorbent
assay was adopted to validate the content of urine UMOD protein of essential
hypertension patients and their serum inflammatory cytokines. RESULTS: As an
alkaline and hydrophilic protein, UMOD has no transmembrane region, but it does
have a signal peptide sequence. It is mainly located extracellularly, belonging
to a secreted protein, whose secondary structure was based mainly on Random coil
which account for 58.44%. According to function prediction, it is found that the
UMOD protein has stress response which may be participate in the inflammatory
reaction. It has been observed from the experiment which was designed on the
basis of the correlation between inflammation reaction and essential hypertension
that the content of urine UMOD protein of essential hypertension patients who is
in stage I was (28.71 ± 10.53) mg/24 h and when compared with the control group's
content (30.15 ± 14.10 mg/24 h), the difference was not obviously; The content of
urine UMOD protein of essential hypertension patients who's in stage II and III
was (18.24 ± 6.12) mg/24 h and (9.43 ± 3.16) mg/24 h, respectively, which were
obviously lower than that of the control group (P<0.01). Additionally, the serum
inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF-?, IL-6 and IL1-? content of essential
hypertension patients were all markedly higher than that of control group
(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: For essential hypertension patients, there's a close
relationship between the expression level of UMOD gene and inflammatory
cytokines, which were manifested as the negative correlation between the level of
the gene's expression and inflammatory cytokines. That has certain reference
value to realize the targeted treatment for essential hypertension through
regulated blood pressure conversely in the view of expression level of
inflammatory cytokines.
