Basigin rs8259 Polymorphism Confers Decreased Risk of Chronic Heart Failure in a Chinese Population.

ABSTRACT: Left ventricular remodeling is an essential risk factor contributing to the pathogenesis of chronic heart failure (CHF). Basigin (BSG) promotes cardiovascular inflammation and myocardial remodeling processes by induction of extracellular matrix metalloproteinases and inflammatory cytokines. BSG rs8259 polymorphism was associated with BSG expression and risk of acute coronary syndrome. Therefore, we investigated whether rs8259 polymorphism contributes to risk and prognosis of CHF in Chinese patients. In total 922 adult patients with CHF and 1107 matched healthy controls were enrolled. BSG rs8259 polymorphism was genotyped using PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Whole blood BSG mRNA expression data from Genotype-Tissue Expression project was accessed. Evaluation of follow-up data was performed in only 15.2% (140) of the patients with CHF. BSG rs8259 TT genotype was associated with a decreased risk of CHF (OR = 0.83, 95% CI = 0.72-0.96, p = 0.010), especially in patients with hypertension (OR = 0.80, 95% CI = 0.68-0.95, p = 0.011) and coronary heart disease (OR = 0.81, 95% CI = 0.69-0.96, p = 0.013) after adjustment for multiple cardiovascular risk factors. Rs8259 T allele was associated with decreased BSG mRNA in whole blood from 338 healthy normal donors (p = 1.31 × 10-6). However, rs8259 polymorphism failed to exhibit an association with cardiovascular mortality (p = 0.283). BSG rs8259 polymorphism may contribute to decreased risk of CHF in a Chinese Han population.

Project description:BackgroundThe disease-associated non-coding variants identified by genome-wide association studies (GWASs) were enriched in open chromatin regions (OCRs) and implicated in gene regulation. Genetic variants in OCRs thus may exert regulatory functions and contribute to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) susceptibility.ObjectiveTo fine map potential functional variants in GWAS loci that contribute to NSCLC predisposition using chromatin accessibility and histone modification data and explore their functions by population study and biochemical experimental analyses.MethodsWe mapped the chromatin accessible regions of lung tissues using data of assay for transposase-accessible chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq) in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and prioritized potential regulatory variants within lung cancer GWAS loci by aligning with histone signatures using data of chromatin immunoprecipitation assays followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) in the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE). A two-stage case-control study with 1,830 cases and 2,001 controls was conducted to explore the associations between candidate variants and NSCLC risk in Chinese population. Bioinformatic annotations and biochemical experiments were performed to further reveal the potential functions of significant variants.ResultsSixteen potential functional single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were selected as candidates from bioinformatics analyses. Three variants out of the 16 candidate SNPs survived after genotyping in stage 1 case-control study, and only the results of SNP rs13064999 were successfully validated in the analyses of stage 2 case-control study. In combined analyses, rs13064999 was significantly associated with NSCLC risk [additive model; odds ratio (OR) = 1.17; 95%CI, 1.07-1.29; p = 0.001]. Functional annotations indicated its potential enhancer bioactivity, and dual-luciferase reporter assays revealed a significant increase in luciferase activity for the reconstructed plasmid with rs13064999 A allele, when compared to the one with wild-type G allele (pA549 < 0.001, pSK-MES-1 = 0.004). Further electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA) and super-shift assays confirmed a stronger affinity of HP1γ for the binding motif containing SNP rs13064999 A allele.ConclusionThese findings suggested that the functional variant rs13064999, identified by the integration of ATAC-seq and ChIP-seq data, contributes to the susceptibility of NSCLC by affecting HP1γ binding, while the exact biological mechanism awaits further exploration.
