Effect of NPC1L1 and HMGCR Genetic Variants With Premature Triple-Vessel Coronary Disease.

ABSTRACT: Background: Both Niemann-Pick C1-like 1 (NPC1L1) and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR) play a key role on dyslipidaemia. We aim to evaluate whether NPC1L1 and HMGCR genetic variants are associated with susceptibility of premature triple-vessel disease (PTVD). Methods: Four single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs11763759, rs4720470, rs2072183, and rs2073547) of NPC1L1; and three SNPs (rs12916, rs2303151, and rs4629571) of HMGCR were genotyped in 872 PTVD patients (males ≤ 50 years old and females ≤ 60 years old), and 401 healthy controls. Results: After adjusting for age and sex, rs12916 of HMGCR was associated with the risk of PTVD in dominance model [odds ratio (OR) = 1.68, 95% confidence intervals (CI): 1.29-2.18, P < 0.001], recessive model (OR = 1.43, 95% CI: 1.08-1.90, P = 0.013) and codominant model (OR = 1.38, 95% CI: 1.17-1.63, P < 0.001); meanwhile, rs4720470 of NPC1L1 was related to increased risk of PTVD in recessive model (OR = 1.74, 95% CI: 1.14-2.74, P = 0.013). Patients who carried both variant rs4720470 and rs12916 also had the risk of PTVD (P < 0.001); however, there were no correlation between these SNPs and the SNYTAX score (all P > 0.05). Conclusions: This is the first report that rs4720470 is a novel polymorphism of the NPC1L1 gene associated with PTVD, and rs12916 of HMGCR gene appears to be a strong genetic marker of PTVD. Our study may improve the early warning, therapeutic strategies and drug development of PTVD.

Analysis of causal effect of APOA5 variants on premature coronary artery disease.

Project description:Apolipoprotein A5 (APOA5) regulates the metabolisms of triglyceride and HDL. APOA5 variants have been linked to coronary artery disease (CAD), but their causal roles are not well studied yet. This study aims to identify the causal effects of APOA5 variants on premature CAD. Sequencing analysis of APOA5 in 128 premature, familiar CAD patients from GeneQuest identified 11 genomic variants, including p.S19W (rs3135506). SKAT analysis showed that all sequenced variants, in aggregate, significantly increased the risk of premature CAD (P-skat = 0.037). Individually, the p.S19W variant was significantly associated with risk of premature CAD (OR = 2.30, P = 0.008) in an independent set of 342 premature CAD patients and 537 controls after adjusting for covariates of sex, age, hypertension, body mass index, triglycerides (TGs), and total, LDL-, and HDL-cholesterol levels. Meanwhile, p.S19W significantly correlated with HDL-C levels (P = 0.048) and TG levels (P = 0.025). Mediation analysis yielded a mediation effect of p.S19W on risk of premature CAD through HDL-C (OR = 0.98, P = 0.040) and TG (OR = 0.98, P = 0.042), suggesting a causal relationship between p.S19W and premature CAD partially through its effects on HDL-C and TG levels. These results suggest that APOA5 variation regulates TG and HDL levels, thus displaying a causal role in the development of CAD.

Comparison of Long-term Outcomes in Patients with Premature Triple-vessel Coronary Disease Undergoing Three Different Treatment Strategies: A Prospective Cohort Study.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Patients with premature triple-vessel disease (PTVD) have a higher risk of recurrent coronary events and repeat revascularization; however, the long-term outcome of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and medical therapy (MT) alone for PTVD patients is controversial. The aim of this study is to evaluate the long-term outcome of PTVD patients among these three treatment strategies, to find out the most appropriate treatment methods for these patients. METHODS:One thousand seven hundred and ninety-two patients with PTVD (age: men ≤50 years and women ≤60 years) were enrolled between 2004 and 2011. The primary end point was all-cause death. The secondary end points were cardiac death, myocardial infarction, stroke, or repeat revascularization. RESULTS:PCI, CABG, and MT alone were performed in 933 (52.1%), 459 (25.6%), and 400 (22.3%) patients. Both PCI and CABG were associated with lower all-cause death (4.6% vs. 4.1% vs. 15.5%, respectively, P < 0.01) and cardiac death (2.8% vs. 2.0% vs. 9.8%, respectively, P < 0.01) versus MT alone. The rate of repeat revascularization in the CABG group was significantly lower than those in the PCI and MT groups. After adjusting for baseline factors, PCI and CABG were still associated with similar lower risk of all-cause death and cardiac death versus MT alone (all-cause death: hazard ratio [HR]: 0.35, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.23-0.53, P < 0.01 and HR: 0.35, 95% CI: 0.18-0.70, P = 0.003, respectively, and cardiac death: HR: 0.32, 95% CI: 0.19-0.54, P < 0.01 and HR: 0.36, 95% CI: 0.14-0.93, P = 0.03, respectively). CONCLUSIONS:PCI and CABG provided equal long-term benefits for all-cause death and cardiac death for PTVD patients. Patients undergoing MT alone had the worst long-term clinical outcomes.

Genetic variants of chromosome 9p21.3 region associated with coronary artery disease and premature coronary artery disease in an Asian Indian population.

Project description:INTRODUCTION:Asian Indians have a propensity for premature, severe, and diffuse coronary artery disease (CAD). Several single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the 'core CAD' region of the chromosomal region 9p21.3 are known to be strongly associated with CAD. OBJECTIVES:We aimed to study SNPs in the 9p21.3 region associated with CAD and premature CAD and identify their association with demographic and clinical characteristics in an Asian Indian population. METHODS:SNP genotyping was performed for 30 SNPs of the 9p21.3 region using MassARRAY® technology. Along with demographic and SNP data analysis, we also performed multivariate logistic regression analysis and multifactor dimensionality reduction analysis to study SNP-SNP and SNP-demographic/clinical variable interactions. RESULTS:Our results suggest that females are at a higher risk of premature CAD. We found that SNPs rs1333045 (CC), rs16905599 (AA), rs2383206 (GG), rs2383208 (AG), and rs4977574 (GG) were significantly associated with premature CAD. When adjusted for covariates/confounders, we found that rs2383206 showed the strongest risk association with CAD followed by rs16905599 and rs2383208. Further, SNPs rs1333049 (CC) and rs4977574 (GG) were found to be exclusively associated with premature CAD cases, suggesting their potential as genetic markers for premature CAD in the local population. Upon gender-based stratification, it was found that rs10757272 (TT and TC) is significantly associated with eightfold to ninefold CAD risk specifically among females. SNP rs7865618 (GG) is significantly associated with more than 2.5-fold CAD risk specifically among males. CONCLUSION:Our study suggests that SNPs at the 9p21 risk locus may be used to generate a reliable genetic risk score along with markers at other loci.

Effect of naturally random allocation to lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol on the risk of coronary heart disease mediated by polymorphisms in NPC1L1, HMGCR, or both: a 2 × 2 factorial Mendelian randomization study.

Project description:BackgroundConsiderable uncertainty exists as to whether lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) by inhibiting the Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1 (NPC1L1) receptor with ezetimibe, either alone or in combination with a 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR) inhibitor (statin), will reduce the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD).ObjectivesThis study evaluated the effect of naturally random allocation to lower LDL-C mediated by polymorphisms in the NPC1L1 gene (target of ezetimibe), the HMGCR gene (target of statins), or both (target of combination therapy) on the risk of CHD.MethodsWe constructed NPC1L1 and HMGCR genetic LDL-C scores to naturally randomize participants into 4 groups: reference, lower LDL-C mediated by NPC1L1 polymorphisms, lower LDL-C mediated by HMGCR polymorphisms, or lower LDL-C mediated by polymorphisms in both NPC1L1 and HMGCR. We compared the risk of CHD (fatal or nonfatal myocardial infarction) among each group using a 2 × 2 factorial mendelian randomization study design.ResultsA total of 108,376 persons (10,464 CHD events) from 14 studies were included. There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics among the 4 groups, thus confirming that allocation was random. Compared to the reference group, the NPC1L1 group had 2.4 mg/dl lower LDL-C and 4.8% lower risk of CHD (odds ratio [OR]: 0.952, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.920 to 0.985); whereas the HMGCR group had 2.9 mg/dl lower LDL-C and a similar 5.3% lower risk of CHD (OR: 0.947, 95% CI: 0.909 to 0.986). The group with lower LDL-C mediated by both NPC1L1 and HMGCR polymorphisms had 5.8 mg/dl additively lower LDL-C and a 10.8% log-linearly additive lower risk of CHD (OR: 0.892, 95% CI: 0.854 to 0.932).ConclusionsThe effect of lower LDL-C on the risk of CHD mediated by polymorphisms in NPC1L1, HMGCR, or both is approximately the same per unit lower LDL-C and log-linearly proportional to the absolute exposure to lower LDL-C.

Increased genetic risk for obesity in premature coronary artery disease.

Project description:There is ongoing controversy as to whether obesity confers risk for CAD independently of associated risk factors including diabetes mellitus. We have carried out a Mendelian randomization study using a genetic risk score (GRS) for body mass index (BMI) based on 35 risk alleles to investigate this question in a population of 5831 early onset CAD cases without diabetes mellitus and 3832 elderly healthy control subjects, all of strictly European ancestry, with adjustment for traditional risk factors (TRFs). We then estimated the genetic correlation between these BMI and CAD (rg) by relating the pairwise genetic similarity matrix to a phenotypic covariance matrix between these two traits. GRSBMI significantly (P=2.12 × 10(-12)) associated with CAD status in a multivariate model adjusted for TRFs, with a per allele odds ratio (OR) of 1.06 (95% CI 1.042-1.076). The addition of GRSBMI to TRFs explained 0.75% of CAD variance and yielded a continuous net recombination index of 16.54% (95% CI=11.82-21.26%, P<0.0001). To test whether GRSBMI explained CAD status when adjusted for measured BMI, separate models were constructed in which the score and BMI were either included as covariates or not. The addition of BMI explained ~1.9% of CAD variance and GRSBMI plus BMI explained 2.65% of CAD variance. Finally, using bivariate restricted maximum likelihood analysis, we provide strong evidence of genome-wide pleiotropy between obesity and CAD. This analysis supports the hypothesis that obesity is a causal risk factor for CAD.

Partial sternotomy coronary surgery with triple-vessel disease in dextrocardia and situs inversus totalis.

Project description:Dextrocardia associated with situs inversus totalis is a rare congenital condition. A small number of cases with these conditions have been reported who underwent myocardial revascularization via the on-pump or off-pump techniques. Among them, only 1 patient with dextrocardia and situs inversus totalis was reported to have the procedure performed with minimally invasive coronary surgery via a right anterior small thoracotomy. However, the case was a single-vessel disease and only one graft was achieved. We describe the case of a 65-year old female patient with triple-vessel obstructive coronary diseases who was successfully revascularized with three grafts using a minimally invasive technique. This was achieved via partial sternotomy and employing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting.

Inactivating mutations in NPC1L1 and protection from coronary heart disease.

Project description:BackgroundEzetimibe lowers plasma levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol by inhibiting the activity of the Niemann-Pick C1-like 1 (NPC1L1) protein. However, whether such inhibition reduces the risk of coronary heart disease is not known. Human mutations that inactivate a gene encoding a drug target can mimic the action of an inhibitory drug and thus can be used to infer potential effects of that drug.MethodsWe sequenced the exons of NPC1L1 in 7364 patients with coronary heart disease and in 14,728 controls without such disease who were of European, African, or South Asian ancestry. We identified carriers of inactivating mutations (nonsense, splice-site, or frameshift mutations). In addition, we genotyped a specific inactivating mutation (p.Arg406X) in 22,590 patients with coronary heart disease and in 68,412 controls. We tested the association between the presence of an inactivating mutation and both plasma lipid levels and the risk of coronary heart disease.ResultsWith sequencing, we identified 15 distinct NPC1L1 inactivating mutations; approximately 1 in every 650 persons was a heterozygous carrier for 1 of these mutations. Heterozygous carriers of NPC1L1 inactivating mutations had a mean LDL cholesterol level that was 12 mg per deciliter (0.31 mmol per liter) lower than that in noncarriers (P=0.04). Carrier status was associated with a relative reduction of 53% in the risk of coronary heart disease (odds ratio for carriers, 0.47; 95% confidence interval, 0.25 to 0.87; P=0.008). In total, only 11 of 29,954 patients with coronary heart disease had an inactivating mutation (carrier frequency, 0.04%) in contrast to 71 of 83,140 controls (carrier frequency, 0.09%).ConclusionsNaturally occurring mutations that disrupt NPC1L1 function were found to be associated with reduced plasma LDL cholesterol levels and a reduced risk of coronary heart disease.

Joint effects of common genetic variants from multiple genes and pathways on the risk of premature coronary artery disease.

Project description:ObjectiveThe aim of this study is to discover common variants in 6 lipid metabolic genes and construct and validate a genetic risk score (GRS) based on the joint effects of genetic variants in multiple genes from lipid and other pathobiologic pathways.BackgroundExplaining the genetic basis of coronary artery disease (CAD) is incomplete. Discovery and aggregation of genetic variants from multiple pathways may advance this objective.MethodsPremature CAD cases (n = 1,947) and CAD-free controls (n = 1,036) were selected from our angiographic registry. In a discovery phase, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at 56 loci from internal discovery and external reports were tested for associations with biomarkers and CAD: 28 promising SNPs were then tested jointly for CAD associations, and a GRS consisting of SNPs contributing independently was constructed and validated in a replication set of familial cases and population-based controls (n = 1,320).ResultsFive variants contributed jointly to CAD prediction in a multigenic GRS model: odds ratio 1.24 (95% CI 1.16-1.33) per risk allele, P = 8.2 x 10(-11), adjusted OR 2.03 (1.53-2.70), fourth versus first quartile. 5-SNP genetic risk score had minor impact on area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (P > .05) but resulted in substantial net reclassification improvement: 0.16 overall, 0.28 in intermediate-risk patients (both P < .0001). GRS(5) predicted familial CAD with similar magnitude in the validation set.ConclusionsThe Intermountain Healthcare's Coronary Genetics study demonstrates the ability of a multigenic, multipathway GRS to improve discrimination of angiographic CAD. Genetic risk scores promise to increase understanding of the genetic basis of CAD and improve identification of individuals at increased CAD risk.

MicroRNA array analysis of platelets in premature coronary artery disease

Project description:Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of human morbidity and mortality worldwide, underscoring the need to improve diagnostic strategies. Platelets play a major role, not only in the process of acute thrombosis during plaque rupture, but also in the formation of atherosclerosis itself. MicroRNAs are endogenous small non-coding RNAs that control gene expression and are expressed in a tissue and disease-specific manner. Therefore they have been proposed to be useful biomarkers. It remains unknown whether differences in miRNA expression levels in platelets can be found between patients with premature CAD and healthy controls. Methodology/Principal Findings In this case-control study we measured relative expression levels of platelet miRNAs using microarrays from 12 patients with premature CAD and 12 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. Six platelet microRNAs were significantly upregulated (miR340*, miR451, miR454*, miR545:9.1. miR615-5p and miR624*) and one miRNA (miR1280) was significantly downregulated in patients with CAD as compared to healthy controls. To validate these results, we measured the expression levels of these candidate miRNAs by qRT-PCR in platelets of individuals from two independent cohorts; validation cohort I consisted of 40 patients with premature CAD and 40 healthy controls and validation cohort II consisted of 27 patients with artery disease and 40 healthy relatives. MiR340* and miR624* were confirmed to be upregulated in patients with CAD as compared to healthy controls in both validation cohorts. Conclusion/Significance Two miRNAs in platelets are significantly upregulated in patients with CAD as compared to healthy controls. miRNA array analysis of isolated platelets from subjects with premature coronary artery disease compared to healthy control subjects.
