SPT2 chromatin protein domain containing 1 gene (SPTY2D1) is a candidate gene for dyslipidemia. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of rs7934205 near SPTY2D1 locus was ethnic- and sex-specific associated with serum lipid levels in our previous study. Whether SPTY2D1 rs17579600 SNP and several environmental factors are associated with serum lipid profiles is unknown. A total of 712 participants of Han and 689 unrelated individuals of Mulao were included. The genotype and allele frequencies of SPTY2D1 rs17579600 SNP were different between the Han and Mulao populations (TT, 74.3% vs. 55.7%; TC, 17.6% vs. 31.2%, CC, 8.1% vs. 13.1%, P = 0.028; T, 83.1% vs. 71.3%; C, 16.9% vs. 28.7%, P = 0.044), and between males and females in the both ethnic groups. The levels of serum apolipoprotein (Apo) A1 in Han, triglyceride (TG) in Mulao, and total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), ApoA1 and ApoB in Mulao males were difference among the genotypes. The C allele carriers had higher ApoA1 in Han, lower TG in Mulao, and lower TC, LDL-C and ApoB and higher ApoA1 in Mulao males than the C allele non-carriers. Serum lipid parameters were also associated with several environmental factors in both ethnic groups. The differences suggesting there may be a racial/ethnic- and/or sex-specific association between the SPTY2D1 rs17579600 SNP and serum lipid parameters in some ethnic groups.
