Identification of a New Single-nucleotide Polymorphism within the Apolipoprotein A5 Gene, Which is Associated with Metabolic Syndrome.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a common disorder which is a constellation of clinical features including abdominal obesity, increased level of serum triglycerides (TGs) and decrease of serum high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), elevated blood pressure, and glucose intolerance. The apolipoprotein A5 (APOA5) is involved in lipid metabolism, influencing the level of plasma TG and HDL-C. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the associations between four INDEL variants of APOA5 gene and the MetS risk.

Materials and methods

In this case-control study, we genotyped 116 Iranian children and adolescents with/without MetS by using Sanger sequencing method for these INDELs. Then, we explored the association of INDELs with MetS risk and their clinical components by logistic regression and one-way analysis of variance analyses.

Results

We identified a novel insertion polymorphism, c. *282-283 insAG/c. *282-283 insG variant, which appears among case and control groups. rs72525532 showed a significant difference for TG levels between various genotype groups. In addition, there were significant associations between newly identified single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and rs72525532 with MetS risk.

Conclusions

These results show that rs72525532 and the newly identified SNP may influence the susceptibility of the individuals to MetS.

Project description:BackgroundTriglycerides (TGs) are proatherogenic lipoproteins involving the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD), while apolipoprotein A5 (APOA5) and apolipoprotein C3 (APOC3) are main lipoproteins composing TG-rich lipoproteins. In this study, we aim to explore the correlation of CHD with APOA5 -1131 T > C and APOC3 -455 T > C single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).MethodsA sum of 210 CHD patients, hospitalized between Jan. 2013 and Mar. 2015 at China-Japan Union Hospital, Jilin University, were selected as our case group and 223 healthy individuals who had physical examination at same hospital at the same period were selected as control group. The frequency distribution of genotypes of APOA5 -1131 T > C and APOC3 -455 T > C SNPs were measured by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). The Stata 12.0 software was utilized for statistical analyses.ResultsThere was no significant difference on age and sex between case and control group (P > 0.05). History of smoking, drinking, hypertension and diabetes mellitus, body mass index and levels of TG and fasting blood sugar in case group were shown to be higher than control group (P < 0.05), while levels of total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in case group were lower than control group (P < 0.05). Both CC and TC' + CC frequencies of APOA5 -1131 T > C and APOC3 -455 T > C in case group were higher compared to control group (both P < 0.05). Additionally, T allele frequencies of the two SNPs in case group were lower than control group, while C allele in case group has higher frequencies compared to control group (both P < 0.05). The results of meta-analysis under allele and dominant models showed that APOA5 -1131 T > C and APOC3 -455 T > C SNPs are likely to increase the risk of CHD (both P < 0.05).ConclusionAPOA5 -1131 T > C and APOC3 -455 T > C SNPs may play potent roles in the development and progression of CHD.

Project description:BackgroundPlasma triglyceride (TG) levels are a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). The APOA5 gene is one of the crucial factors in plasma TG metabolism regulation. The rs662799 polymorphism in the APOA5 gene has been reported to be associated with cardiovascular disease. The goal of this study was to evaluate the potential association of this variant with CVD in patients with end-stage kidney disease. METHODS: In this case-control study the polymorphism was analyzed using the PCR-RFLP method in 800 consecutive patients with ESKD and 500 healthy controls. The genotype and allele distribution was compared between subgroups of patients with CVD (552) versus those without CVD (248).ResultsThe frequency of the minor allele (C) in the healthy individuals was 9% compared to 12% in ESRD group (p = 0.09). The difference between groups was slightly higher for CC homozygote (3.5% versus 1.6%, p = 0.042). The ESKD patient group was analyzed according to the presence or absence of CVD. The significant differences in the polymorphism distribution were revealed in this analysis. The frequency of the C allele in the CVD + subgroup was 14% compared to 6% in CVD- patients (p = 0.001). In the CVD + subgroup the ORs (95% CI) for the C allele and CC genotype were 2.41 (1.61-3.6), p < 0.001 and 3.13 (1.07-9.14), p = 0.036, respectively. This indicates to the association of the variant C allele with cardiovascular disease in ESKD patients. The CC homozygotes have a threefold higher odds of CVD compared to TT homozygotes. The highest frequency of the C allele (18%) was observed in subgroup of patients with diabetic nephropathy, with OR (95% CI) 3.40 (2.13-5.43), p < 0.001.The presence of minor allele (CC and CT genotypes) was significantly associated with increased plasma triglyceride levels (p < 0.001 for both CVD + and CVD- groups).ConclusionThe present study demonstrated the effect of rs662799 polymorphism on plasma TG levels and its association with the development of cardiovascular disease in ESKD patients.

Project description:IntroductionInterstitial Cystitis (IC) is a chronic condition diagnosed based on the presence of symptoms, such as suprapubic/ pelvic pain, pressure or discomfort in association with urgency and increased urinary frequency. Confusable diseases must be excluded. However, there is no objective test or marker to establish the presence of the disease. Diagnosis and patient management is often difficult, given the poor understanding of IC pathogenesis and its unknown etiology and genetics. As an attempt to find biomarkers related to IC, we assessed the association between 20 selected single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) with IC and pain severity.ObjectivesTo assess the presence of SNPs in IC patients' blood samples and correlate them with the disease and chronic pain condition.MethodsA case-control study was conducted. We selected 34 female patients with IC diagnosed according to NIDDK criteria and 23 patients in the control group (previously healthy women with only stress urinary incontinence). IC patients were allocated into two groups according to reported chronic pain severity. We selected the following SNPs for analysis: rs1800871, rs1800872, rs1800896, rs1800471, rs1800629, rs361525, rs1800497, rs6311, rs6277, rs6276, rs6313, rs2835859, rs11127292, rs2243248, rs6887695, rs3212227, rs1799971, rs12579350, rs3813034, and rs6746030. Genotyping was performed by real-time PCR (q-PCR).ResultsThe polymorphic allele of SNP rs11127292 exhibited a higher frequency in subjects with IC than in controls (p:0.01). The polymorphic allele of SNP rs6311 was more frequent in patients with severe pain (p:0.03). The frequency of the wild-type allele of SNP rs1799971 was higher in patients with mild to moderate pain (p:0.04).ConclusionThe results indicated differences in SNP frequency among subjects, suggesting that SNPs could serve either as a marker of IC or as a marker of pain severity in IC patients. The study showed promising results regarding IC and polymorphism associations. These associations have not been previously reported.
