SDF1 Polymorphisms Influence Outcome in Patients with Symptomatic Cardiovascular Disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background

SDF1 and its cognate receptors CXCR4 and CXCR7 are involved in myocardial repair and are associated with outcome in cardiovascular patients. Hence, we aimed to investigate clinically significant SDF1 SNPs for their prognostic impact in patients with cardiovascular disease.

Methods and results

Genotyping for selected SDF1 variants (rs1065297, rs2839693, rs1801157, rs266087, rs266085 and rs266089 was performed in patients (n = 872) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention. Carriers of variant rs2839693 and rs266089 showed significantly higher cumulative event-free survival compared with non-carriers. All other polymorphisms had no relevant influence on outcome. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed a significant correlation of these SNPs with cardiovascular outcome after inclusion of clinical and prognostic relevant variables (hazard ratio (HR) 0.51 (95% CI 0.30-0.88), p = 0.015 and [HR 0.51 (95% CI 0.30-0.88), p = 0.016, respectively). In addition, multivariate Cox regression with SDF1 haplotypes revealed a significantly reduced risk for the haplotype carrying the minor alleles of rs2839693 and rs266089 (HR 0.47 (95% CI 0.27-0.84), p = 0.011).

Conclusion

Distinct SDF1 polymorphisms are associated with improved cardiovascular prognosis in CAD patients. Further studies are warranted to validate these results and to better describe the endogenous regeneration potential in carriers of these SNPs. Targeted, genotype guided therapeutic approaches to foster myocardial regeneration and thus cardiovascular prognosis should be evaluated in future.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Osteoarthritis (OA) is associated with worsening physical function and a high prevalence of comorbid health conditions. In particular, cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk is higher in individuals with OA than the general population. Limitations in physical function may be one pathway to the development of CVD among individuals with OA. This study evaluated associations of symptomatic knee OA (sxKOA), baseline physical function and worsening of function over time with self-reported incident CVD in a community-based cohort. METHODS:Our sample consisted of individuals from the Johnston County Osteoarthritis Project who did not report having CVD at baseline. Variables used to evaluate physical function were the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), time to complete 5 chair stands, and the 8-ft walk. Worsening function for these variables was defined based on previous literature and cutoffs from our sample. Logistic regression analyses examined associations of sxKOA, baseline function and worsening of function over time with self-reported incident CVD, unadjusted and adjusted for relevant demographic and clinical characteristics. RESULTS:Among 1709 participants included in these analyses, the mean age was 59.5?±?9.5 years, 63.6% were women, 15% had sxKOA, and the follow up time was 5.9?±?1.2 years. About a third of participants reported worsening HAQ score, about two-fifths had worsened chair stand time, half had worsened walking speed during the 8-ft walk, and 16% self-reported incident CVD. In unadjusted analyses, sxKOA, baseline function, and worsening function were all associated with self-reported incident CVD. In multivariable models including all of these variables, sxKOA was not associated with incident CVD, but worsening function was significantly associated with increased CVD risk, for all three functional measures: HAQ odds ratio (OR)?=?2.49 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.90-3.25), chair stands OR?=?1.58 (95% CI 1.20-2.08), 8-ft walk OR?=?1.53 (95%CI 1.15-2.04). These associations for worsening function remained in models additionally adjusted for demographic and clinical characteristics related to CVD risk. CONCLUSIONS:The association between symptomatic knee osteoarthritis and cardiovascular disease risk was explained by measures of physical function. This highlights the importance of physical activity and other strategies to prevent functional loss among individuals with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis.

Project description:The objective of the present study was to establish if individuals with Diabetes Mellitus (DM2) and periodontal diseases (gingivitis or periodontitis) presented an increase in the concentration of modified LDL (moLDL) and what is the influence of periodontal treatment on the decrease of moLDL particles with consequent improvement in the parameters of DM2. Twenty-four diabetic patients with periodontitis (Group 1) and twenty-four diabetic patients with gingivitis (Group 2) were followed up for a period of 12 months. Group 1 was treated with periodontal debridement, and Group 2 received supra-gingival scaling and prophylaxis. In both groups, periodontal clinical parameters: probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), gingival resection (GR), bleeding on probing index (BOP) and plaque index; inflammatory serum markers (glycemia, A1c, total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol (HDL-c), LDL-cholesterol (LDL-c), triglycerides and hs-CRP) and oxidized LDL (oxLDL) were measured at baseline, t = 6 and t = 12 months after treatment. Solutions of LDL were analyzed using the nonlinear optical Z-Scan and optical absorption techniques. The periodontal clinical parameters showed significant improvement (p < 0.05) in both Group after 12 months. For both groups, total cholesterol, HDL-c, LDL-c, triglycerides and A1c levels did not show significant reductions after periodontal therapy. hs-CRP levels in Group 1 presented a significant reduction after 12 months. The glycemic rate and the oxLDL concentrations did not show significant differences as a function of time. The optical measurements of LDL solutions revealed an improvement of the LDL-c quality in both groups. Periodontal debridement was able to improve periodontal parameters and the quality of LDL-c in diabetic patients but without changes in the oxLDL concentration in both groups. Considering the clinical relevance, the reduction of infectious and inflammatory sites present in the oral cavity through periodontal therapy may help with the control and prevention of hyperglycemia and precursors of cardiovascular diseases.
