Present and Future Prospects of Individualized Medical Services by Genetic Tests
With progress of human genome projects many gene mutations and their expression profiles have been much identified. Laboratory tests have
become essential to achieve proper individualized medical services. In particular single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) and gene expression
profiles are of high interests. As one of these ongoing mmodels, we here present the SNPs of human Protein 1' also called as human Clara cell
10-kd protein(CC10). We initially found six different SNPs(A-908G, G38A, G118A, C1225T, G1226A, C4777G). For laboratory use multiplex
PCR was developed to determine frequencies in normal control. The -908G and 38A genotypes were more frequent in sarcoidosis than those in
controls. The SNPs of in the human protein 1 gene may be the genetic susceptibility factors for Sarcoidosis.
