CDKN2BAS polymorphisms are associated with coronary heart disease risk a Han Chinese population.

ABSTRACT: The goal of our study was to determine whether CDKN2BAS polymorphisms are associated with coronary heart disease (CHD) risk in a Han Chinese population. Eight SNPs were genotyped in 676 men and 465 women. We used ?2 tests and genetic model analyses to evaluate associations between the SNPs and CHD risk. We found that rs10757274 was associated with an increased risk of CHD in both men (allele G: Odds ratio [OR] = 1.30, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.05-1.61, P = 0.018; codominant model: P = 0.042; recessive model: OR = 1.70, 95% CI: 1.10-2.62, P = 0.016; log-additive model: OR = 1.34, 95% CI: 1.05-1.71, P = 0.019) and women (dominant model: OR = 2.26, 95% CI: 1.28-3.99, P = 0.004). In addition, rs7865618 was associated with an 8.10-fold increased risk of CHD in women under a recessive model (OR = 8.10, 95% CI: 1.74-37.68, P = 0.006). Interestingly, the haplotype AA (rs10757274 and rs1333042) of CDKN2BAS was associated with decreased the risk of CHD in men (OR = 0.72, 95% CI: 0.55 - 0.95, P = 0.022).
