Trace Elements and Gene Polymorphisms

Elements Gene Polymorphisms Effects Disease

Selenium GPx1 P198L P198L is correlated to the

selenium level.

SEPP1 rs13168440 Selenium levels were

negatively associated with

PCa risk only among men

with the minor allele.

SEP15 rs561104 rs561104 and plasma selenium

levels had significant

interaction with PCa mortality.

MnSOD V to A A/A: high plasma selenium

level.

Iron CACNA2D3 rs1375515 The G allele: reduced

hemoglobin and ferritin.

TMPRSS6 A736V Homozygosity for the

p.736Val allele was

associated with lower hepatic

iron stores and ferritin levels.

proteins’ expressions were

altered in the H67D mice.

Plasma concentrations of

A1AT was negatively related

to ferritin.

Chromium XRCC1 R399Q XRCC1 gene Arg399Gln

mutations may become

protective biomarkers for

hexavalent chromiuminduced

DNA damage.

Fluorine CTR Taq

polymorphisms

The interactive effect of F

burden and CTR genotype

was significant.

Copper ATP7B rs2147363 The ATP7B gene plays a key

role in controlling body

copper balance.

Potassium

Potassium is an essential macroelement in human nutrition, playing an important

role in fluid and electrolyte balance. The secretion of potassium ions in the kidney

is subjected to aldosterone, and, in turn, the body potassium storage capacity

is regulated. Excessive aldosterone will cause a huge loss of potassium and magnesium

ions through the urine, resulting in lower plasma potassium and higher plasma
