Common single nucleotide polymorphisms in the FNDC5 gene and serum irisin levels in acute myocardial infarction.


ABSTRACT:

Objective

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the most common type of coronary artery disease. The irisin hormone encoded by the fibronectin type III domain-containing protein-5 (FNDC5) gene is synthesized in muscle, heart, and fat tissues. The present study aims to investigate serum irisin concentrations and FNDC5 genetic variants in patients with AMI through comparison with controls.

Methods

This study included 225 patients with AMI and 225 healthy subjects. Blood samples were obtained from patients during the first 1-24 hours after AMI. Serum irisin concentration was measured with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The variants of rs16835198, rs3480, and rs726344 in the FNDC5 gene were genotyped with real time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).

Results

Compared with control serum irisin concentrations were significantly lower in patients with AMI. Serum irisin concentrations of patients with AMI showed a significant and gradual decrease from 6 hours up to 24 hours (p<0.05). There were no significant differences between the patient and control groups based on genotype and allele frequencies of rs16835198, rs3480, and rs726344 in the FNDC5 gene (p>0.05). However, the frequency of the TT genotype in male patients with AMI (6.4%) was significantly lower compared with control male subjects (16.2%). In addition, the GGT haplotype was identified as the protective haplotype against the risk of AMI (p<0.001; odds ratio=0.107).

Conclusions

The findings of the study suggest that serum irisin concentration could serve as a novel biological marker for the early diagnosis of AMI.
