Contribution of adiponectin polymorphisms to the risk of coronary artery disease in a North-African Tunisian population.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Adiponectin, an adipocyte-derived protein, is known to play a key role in the processes leading to atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease (CAD) through its anti-atherogenic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, and anti-apoptotic properties. In the current study, we have studied the association of two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) +45 T>G (rs2241766) and +276 G>T (rs1501299) of the adiponectin gene with coronary artery disease (CAD) on an Arab/North-African population from Tunisia. METHODS:Subjects comprised 277 patients with angiographically demonstrated CAD and 269 age- and gender-matched control subjects. The adiponectin genotypes were performed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis (PCR-RFLP). The contribution of adiponectin variants to CAD was analyzed by haplotype and regression analysis. RESULTS:Adiponectin +45T>G and +276G>T genotypic and allelic distributions did not show a significant difference between cases and controls. Similarly, no association with CAD was observed for the haplotype analysis. Assuming dominant model of transmission for both polymorphisms and after adjustment of a number of traditional risk factors for CAD, logistic regression analysis showed an association of SNP +45 T>G with increased risk of developing CAD [adjusted OR (95% CI) = 2.59 (1.17-5.70); P = .01]. However, SNP + 276 G>T is associated with decreased risk of developing CAD [adjusted OR (95% CI) = 0.47 (0.22-0.97); P = .04]. CONCLUSION:There is no allelic or genotypic association of +45 T>G and +276 G>T of the adiponectin gene with CAD in the Tunisian population.

Project description:ObjectiveBy releasing mediators, like nitric oxide (NO), vascular endothelium is considered so significant in the process of atherosclerotic . In fact, the major functions of NO consist in inhibiting the activation of platelet, relaxing the muscles (vascular and smooth ones), and modulating the growth and the migration of cells (vascular and smooth ones). Therefore, this process makes the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS3) considerably important because it possesses atheroprotective activity. Polymophisms, rs1808593 (10G/T) as well as rs891512 (G24943A) within NOS3 gene, play major role in the coronary artery disease (CAD) development. The aim of the study is to evaluate the relationship between the 10G/T and G24943A polymorphisms and the CAD among Tunisian individuals.MethodsWe included, in this survey, a set of 274 patients suffering from CAD together with 162 normotensive subjects. The PCR-RFLP was applied to analyze the polymorphism of intron 23 (10G/T) gene, while the ASA-PCR was used to analyze the intronic G24943A gene polymorphism. Overall and subgroup analyses were performed. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to evaluate the association between NOS3 10G/T and G24943A polymorphisms as well as CAD risk. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS V.10.ResultsThe genotype frequencies for G24943A polymorphism differed significantly between the CAD patients and the controls. The former had a frequency of 11.4% for the AA genotype, 34.7% for the GA genotype and 53.9% for the GG genotype. The latter had a frequency of only 2.5% for the AA genotype, 29.7% for the GA genotype and 67.7% for the GG genotype (χ2=7.62; OR=1.79; p=0.006). The CAD patient group showed a significantly-higher frequency of the A allele compared to the controls (0.28 vs. 0.16; χ2=15.20; p<0.001). The odds ratio of CAD for A vs. G allele frequency was statistically significant 1.99 (1.4-2.82) at 95% CI. The genotype distribution for the 3 investigated variants of 10G/T were not significantly different between CAD and control subjects (χ2=1.46; OR=1.72; p=0.22). Whereas, 10G/T has revealed barely allelic (χ2=4.45; OR=2.3; p=0.034) correlation with coronary artery disease Conclusion: The present study was designed so that there would be an association between the CAD and NOS3 polymorphism (G24943A). However, these results have proven that the polymorphism of 10G/T is not associated with CAD in the Tunisian population.

Project description:BackgroundCardiovascular events are an independent risk factor for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which is the leading cause of mortality in NAFLD patients. Several recent studies demonstrated that adiponectin (Ad) polymorphisms were involved in the progression of NAFLD and coronary artery disease (CAD). However, reports on the association between Ad polymorphisms and the risk of developing CAD in NAFLD patients are lacking in a Northern Han Chinese population.ObjectivesThe present study was designed to evaluate the association between Ad gene polymorphisms (rs266729 and rs2241766) and the risk of developing CAD in Northern Han Chinese patients with NAFLD.Materials and methodsIn this case-control study, using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Adrs266729 and rs2241766 gene polymorphisms were genotyped in B-type ultrasonography-proven NAFLD patients, with (n = 246) or without (n = 247) CAD and in healthy controls (n = 304). Serum lipid profiles were determined using biochemical methods. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 17.0 statistical software.ResultsThere were significant differences in the Adrs266729 G allele between the NAFLD patients with and without CAD (P < 0.05). In addition, there was a significant difference in the Adrs2241766 G allele of the NAFLD patients compared with that of the controls (P < 0.05). In the NAFLD CAD population, carriers of the G allele of Adrs266729 had higher serum triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels and a lower Ad level than their noncarrier counterparts (P = 0.031, P = 0.034, P = 0.007, P < 0.001, and P < 0.001, respectively). NAFLD patients without CAD had higher TG and serum FPG values and a lower Ad level than their noncarrier counterparts (P = 0.014, P = 0.038, and P < 0.001, respectively). In the NAFLD patients with/without CAD, the carriers of the G allele of Adrs2241766 had higher TG levels (P = 0.039 and P = 0.042, respectively) than those of their noncarrier counterparts.ConclusionsIn this Northern Chinese Han population, the Adrs266729 and rs2241766 G alleles were closely associated with the occurrence of NAFLD. However, only NAFLD patients who carried the Adrs266729 G allele had an increased risk of developing CAD.
