The The relationship between NLRP3 rs10159239 and Vaspin rs2236242 gene variants and obstructive sleep apnea

Abstract

The vaspin rs6242 SNP AA genotype increased susceptibility to OSA, while the AT genotype appeared to be protective. The lower plasma vaspin levels in OSA compared with the control group and in patients with the AA genotype suggest that vaspin may be a protective biomarker for OSA.
