AGTR1 rs3772622 gene polymorphism increase the risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease patients suffer coronary artery disease in Northern Chinese Han population.

ABSTRACT: Cardiovascular disease (CAD) responsible and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are both metabolic diseases, and they are mostly influenced by genetic factors. The aim of our study is to evaluate the relationship between angiotensin II type-1 receptor (AGTR1) gene rs3772622 polymorphisms and the risk of developing coronary artery disease (CAD) in Chinese patients with NAFLD.Genotype for AGTR1 rs3772622 in 574 NAFLD patients with CAD or 589 NAFLD patients without CAD, 332 CAD patients exclude NAFLD and 338 health control subjects were determined by sequencing and polymerase chain reaction analysis. Relevant statistical methods were employed to analyze the genotypes, alleles and the clinical date. Inter-group differences and associations were assessed statistically using t-tests and Chi square and logistic analyses. The relative risk of AGTR1 rs3772622 for NAFLD was estimated by logistic regression analysis.No significant difference in genotype and allele frequency of AGTR1 rs3772622 was found between the NAFLD without CAD population and the controls (P?>?0.05). However, makeable difference was found when compared the CAD in patients with NAFLD and CAD free NAFLD patients (P?
