Abstract
English (OpenAlex)
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the associations of G14713A and T29107A polymorphic variants of Caveolin-1 with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study was performed on 86 severe OSA patients and 86 controls. Genotyping was performed to investigate the association of G14713A and T29107A polymorphisms of Caveolin-1 with severe OSA. RESULTS: The distribution of genotypes of T29107A was significantly different between controls and OSA patients with a higher proportion of TT carriers in the OSA group. CONCLUSION: T29107A-specific genotype of Caveolin-1 may be linked with severe OSA pathogenesis.
