Variants in the SMARCA4 gene was associated with coronary heart disease susceptibility in Chinese han population.

ABSTRACT: Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. Many single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are found to be related to the risk of CHD in previous studies. This study investigated whether polymorphism of SMARCA4 gene is associated with CHD.Genotypes at five CHD-relevant SNPs were determined in 456 cases of incident CHD and 685 unaffected controls in Chinese Han population using ?2 test, genetic model analysis and haplotype analysis. We also analysis the differences in continuous variables among the subjects with three genotypes of related genes were assessed using the ANOVA.We identified two susceptibility SNPs in the SMARCA4 gene that were potentially associated with a decreased risk of CHD. We identified rs11879293 (OR, 0.74; 95% CI, 0.59-0.96; P = 0.012) and rs12232780 (OR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.54-0.90; P = 0.005) were associated with a decreased risk of CHD risk under the log-additive model adjusted by gender and age. Meanwhile, we also found that significant differences in glucose concentrations with rs11879293 and rs1122608 different genotype. Serum LDL-C and HDL-C were seen among the 3 genotypes of rs12232780 exist differences.This study provides an evidence for polymorphism of SMARCA4 gene associated with CHD development in Chinese Han population.
