Association of genetic polymorphisms in matrix metalloproteinase-9 and coronary artery disease in the Chinese Han population: a case-control study.

ABSTRACT: Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) plays an important role in inflammation and matrix degradation involved in atherosclerosis and plaque rupture. The T allele of rs3918242 has been reported to lead to a high promoter activity and associate with the extent of coronary artery disease (CAD). And some studies have reported that the G allele of rs17576 might be associated with CAD. The aim of this study was to assess the association between the polymorphisms of the MMP-9 gene and CAD in the Chinese Han population.This case-control study comprised 258 CAD cases and 153 controls from the Chinese Han Population. The genomic DNA of MMP-9 was isolated from whole blood. Polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment length polymorphism was used to determine the rs3918242 and rs17576 genotypes in the MMP-9 gene and the total serum levels of MMP-9 were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in both case and control groups.Analysis of MMP-9 gene polymorphisms showed that the frequencies of the T allele and CT+TT genotypes of rs3918242 were significantly higher in the case group than in the control group (p<0.05). However, the distribution of variant genotypes of rs17576 did not differ between the case and control groups (p>0.05). The total serum level of MMP-9 was significantly higher in the case group than in the control group (p<0.05). The subjects carrying T alleles in the CAD group had higher average serum MMP-9 levels compared with CC genotypes (p<0.05).Our results suggest that the single-nucleotide polymorphism of rs3918242 in the MMP-9 gene is associated with CAD and high serum levels of MMP-9 are also associated with CAD in the Chinese Han population. Therefore, genetic variation of rs3918242 may participate in the development of CAD through influencing MMP-9 expression.

Project description:Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the main fatal diseases all over the world. CAD is a complex disease, which has multiple risk factors mechanisms. In recent years, genome-wide association study (GWAS) had revealed single nucleotide polymorphism genes (SNPs) which were closely related with CAD risks. The relationship between long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) MALAT1 (metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1) and CAD risk is largely unknown. To our knowledge, this is the first study which demonstrated the interaction effects of SNP-SNP and SNP-environment with CAD risk. In general, our case-control study is to detect the association between MALAT1 (rs619586, rs4102217) SNPs and CAD risk. Methods: Three hundred and sixty-five CAD patients and three hundred and eighty-four matched control participants blood samples were collected in Liaoning province, China. Two polymorphisms (rs619586, rs4102217) in lncRNA MALAT1 were genotyped by KASP platform. Results: In a stratified analysis, we found that non-drinkers with GC genotype and the recessive model of rs4102217 had higher CAD risk (P=0.010, odds ratio (OR): 1.96, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.17-3.28; P=0.026, OR: 1.73, 95% CI = 1.07-2.79) and diabetes mellitus (DM) history group (P=0.010, OR: 4.07, 95% CI = 1.41-11.81; P=0.019, OR: 3.29, 95% CI = 1.22-8.88). In SNP-SNP interactions analysis between MALAT1 and CAD risk, we found rs4102217 had an increase in smokers (GG: OR: 2.04, 95% CI = 1.42-2.92; CC+GC: OR: 2.64, 95% CI = 1.64-4.26) and a decrease in drinkers (CC+GC: OR: 0.33, 95% CI = 0.20-0.55). Smokers with MALAT1 rs619586 AA genotype (OR: 2.20, 95% CI = 1.57-3.07) and GG+AG genotype (OR: 2.11, 95% CI = 1.17-3.81) had a higher risk of CAD. Moreover, drinkers with AA genotype (OR: 0.22, 95% CI = 0.10-0.48) and GG+AG genotype (OR: 0.38, 95% CI = 0.22-0.65) had a lower risk of CAD. According to the MDR software, MALAT1 rs4102217 polymorphism-smoking-drinking was the best interaction model, which has higher risk of CAD (Testing Bal.ACC. = 0.6979). Conclusion: Our study demonstrated that the GC genotype and the recessive model of rs4102217 potentially increased CAD risk in some specific group.
