The impact of vascular endothelial growth factor +405 C/G polymorphism on long-term outcome and severity of coronary artery disease.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:The association between genetic variations of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene and the risk for atherosclerosis has been hypothesized. We aimed to assess the relationship between rs2010963 (+405 C/G) polymorphism and presence, severity, and outcome of coronary artery disease (CAD) in an Iranian cohort. METHODS:Genotyping of VEGF rs2010963 polymorphism was performed on 520 individuals, comprising 347 patients with documented coronary artery disease based on angiography report and 173 individuals with normal coronary arteries, using the TaqMan real-time PCR method. In final, 484 subjects were followed up over a 5-year period for cardiovascular-related outcomes. RESULTS:C allele of VEGF rs2010963 polymorphism was related to increase risk for CAD and also slightly to 5-year cardiovascular mortality. The 5-year survival in C and G allele subgroups were 92.3% and 94.3% in CAD group and 95.7% and 98.0% in non-CAD group, respectively. CONCLUSIONS:Vascular endothelial growth factor rs2010963 polymorphism may be associated with the presence of CAD and its long-term survival, but not with its severity. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of genetic association between rs2010963 SNP and CAD-related death. It can be thus suggested that rs2010963 VEGF gene can be considered as a genetic risk predictor for CAD and its outcomes.

Project description:BackgroundTCF7L2 polymorphisms have been consistently associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus in different populations and type 2 diabetes mellitus is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, especially coronary artery disease. This study aimed to evaluate the association between TCF7L2 polymorphism rs7903146 and coronary artery disease in diabetic and non-diabetic subjects.Methods and resultstwo populations were studied in order to assess severity of coronary artery disease and cardiovascular events incidence. Eight-hundred and eighty nine subjects who were referred for cardiac catheterization for coronary artery disease diagnosis were cross-sectionally evaluated for coronary lesions (atherosclerotic burden) and 559 subjects from the MASS-II Trial were prospectively followed-up for 5 years and assessed for major cardiovascular events incidence. As expected, rs7903146 T allele was associated with diabetes. Although diabetic patients had a higher prevalence of coronary lesions, no association between TCF7L2 genotype and coronary lesions was found in this subgroup. However, non-diabetic individuals carrying the T allele were associated with a significantly higher frequency of coronary lesions than non-diabetic non-carriers of the risk allele (adjusted OR = 2.32 95%CI 1.27-4.24, p = 0.006). Moreover, presence of multi-vessel coronary artery disease was also associated with the CT or TT genotypes in non-diabetics. Similarly, from the prospective sample analysis, non-diabetics carrying the CT/TT genotypes had significantly more composite cardiovascular end-points events than CC carriers (p = 0.049), mainly due to an increased incidence of death (p = 0.004).Conclusionsrs7903146 T allele is associated with diabetes and, in non-diabetic individuals, with a higher prevalence and severity of coronary artery disease and cardiovascular events. name of registry site (see list below), registration number, trial registration URL in brackets.Clinical trial registration informationMEDICINE, ANGIOPLASTY, OR SURGERY STUDY (MASS II): Unique identifier: ISRCTN66068876.
