Association of rs662799 in APOA5 with CAD in Chinese Han population.

ABSTRACT: CAD (Coronary Artery Disease) is a complex disease that influenced by various environmental and genetic factors. Previous studies have found many single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with the risk of CAD occurrence. However, the results are inconsistent. In this study, we aim to investigate genetic etiology in Chinese Han population by analysis of 7 SNPs in lipid metabolism pathway that previously has been reported to be associated with CAD.A total of 631 samples were used in this study, including 435 CAD cases and 196 normal healthy controls. SNP genotyping were conducted via multiplex PCR amplifying followed by NGS (next-generation sequencing).Rs662799 in APOA5 (Apolipoprotein A5) gene was associated with CAD in Chinese Han population (Odds-ratio?=?1.374, P-value?=?0.03). No significant association was observed between the rest of SNPs and CAD. Stratified association analysis revealed rs5882 was associated with CAD in non-hypertension group (Odds-ratio?=?1.593, P-value?=?0.023). Rs1800588 was associated with CAD in smoking group (Odds-ratio?=?1.603, P-value?=?0.035).The minor allele of rs662799 was the risk factor of CAD occurrences in Chinese Han population.

Project description:Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease related to immune, whose complexity of molecular mechanisms is still not fully clear. RNA sequencing has been widely applied in various fields including biological medicine. According to the bioinformatics analysis of differential genes, biomarkers and drug targets have been discovered for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Besides, the pathological mechanisms of disease and functions of gene can be evaluated. In the present study, we report the application of RNA sequencing in skin tissues from psoriatic and healthy persons. By obtaining 2139 differential expressed genes (DEGs), 208 significantly differential GO terms and 44 significantly differential pathways were generated. We found that the functions of DEGs were mainly related to cell cycle, inflammatory, virus, immune response and metabolic process.The major pathways included cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, Toll-like receptor signaling pathway, chemokine signaling pathway, cell cycle, metabolic pathways, ribosome, peroxisome, steroid biosynthesis and biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids. Furthermore, co-expression network was constructed to identify core genes and relations between genes. we considered genes with high values of degree and k-core difference in the co-expression network as core genes, such as IFNG, IL26, TLR3, PRKCQ, TLR4, CD274, CDK1 and IL17A. We chose CD274, an important immune checkpoint, to evaluate its regulatory mechanisms. Candidate genes related to CD274 were evaluated by the co-expression network analysis, and the relations between CD274 and candidate genes were validated in epidermal keratinocytes. Finally, IFNG and CDK1 inhibitor (indirubin) were found increasing the expression levels of CD274. In addition, indirubin was confirmed to attenuate mouse psoriasis-like skin lesion with the mechanisms related to CD274. In conclusion, this study provides us a comprehensive transcriptome analysis method on psoriasis to identify core genes and explore the important regulatory functions of genes.
