CDKN2A and CDKN2B methylation in coronary heart disease cases and controls.

ABSTRACT: The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (CDKN2A) and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2B (CDKN2B) methylation, and coronary heart disease (CHD), and to explore the interaction between methylation status and CHD clinical characteristics in Han Chinese patients. A total of 189 CHD (96 males, 93 females) and 190 well-matched non-CHD controls (96 males, 94 females) were recruited for the study. Methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction technology was used to examine gene promoter methylation status. Comparisons of methylation frequencies between CHD and non-CHD patients were carried out using the Chi-square test. Methylation levels of CDKN2A and CDKN2B genes were not found to be associated with the risk of CHD. However, the mean age of CDKN2A-hypermethylated participants was significantly lower than CDKN2A-unmethylated participants (58.73±5.88 vs. 62.62±5.36 years, adjusted P<0.001). Conversely, the mean age of CDKN2B-hypermethylated participants was significantly higher compared with CDKN2B-unmethylated participants (62.26±5.48 vs. 58.33±7.47 years, adjusted P=0.048). In addition, CDKN2B methylation frequencies were significantly increased in female participants compared with males (99.47 vs. 11.98%, P=0.032). In conclusion, the results indicated that CDKN2A and CDKN2B promoter methylation frequencies were significantly associated with age, and there was a gender dimorphism in CDKN2B methylation.

Project description:BackgroundCOPD and coronary heart disease (CHD) frequently co-occur, yet which COPD phenotypes are most prone to CHD is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to see whether COPD patients did have a true higher risk for CHD than subjects without COPD, and to examine a range of potential factors associated with CHD in COPD patients and controls.Methods347 COPD patients and 428 non-COPD controls, were invited for coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and pulmonary CT. Arterial blood gas, bioelectrical impedance and lung function was measured, and a detailed medical history taken. The CCTA was evaluated for significant coronary stenosis and calcium score (CaSc), and emphysema defined as >10% of total area <-950 Hounsfield units.Results12.6% of the COPD patients and 5.7% of the controls had coronary stenosis (p<0.01), whereas 55.9% of the COPD patients had a CaSc>100 compared to 31.6% of the controls (p<0.01). In a multivariable model adjusting for sex, age, body composition, pack-years, CRP, cholesterol/blood pressure lowering medication use and diabetes mellitus, the OR (95% CI) for having significant stenosis was 1.80 (0.86-3.78) in COPD patients compared with controls. In a similar model, the OR (95% CI) for having CaSc>100 was 1.68 (1.12-2.53) in COPD patients compared with controls. Examining the risk of significant stenosis and CaSc>100 among COPD patients, no variable was associated with significant stenosis, whereas male sex [OR 2.85 (1.56-5.21)], age [OR 3.74 (2.42-5.77)], statin use [OR 2.23 (1.23-4.50)] were associated with CaSc>100, after adjusting for body composition, pack-years, C-reactive protein, use of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), diabetes, emphysema score, GOLD category, exacerbation frequency, eosinophilia, and hypoxemia.ConclusionCOPD patients were more likely to have CHD, but neither emphysema score, lung function, exacerbation frequency, nor hypoxemia predicted presence of either coronary stenosis or CaSc>100.

Project description:ImportanceAmerican Indian communities experience a high burden of coronary heart disease (CHD). Strategies are needed to identify individuals at risk and implement preventive interventions.ObjectiveTo investigate the association of blood DNA methylation (DNAm) with incident CHD using a large number of methylation sites (cytosine-phosphate-guanine [CpG]) in a single model.Design, setting, and participantsThis prospective study, including a discovery cohort (the Strong Heart Study [SHS]) and 4 additional cohorts (the Women's Health Initiative [WHI], the Framingham Heart Study [FHS], the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study ([ARIC]-Black, and ARIC-White), evaluated 12 American Indian communities in 4 US states; African American women, Hispanic women, and White women throughout the US; White men and White women from Massachusetts; and Black men and women and White men and women from 4 US communities. A total of 2321 men and women (mean [SD] follow-up, 19.1 [9.2] years) were included in the SHS, 1874 women (mean [SD] follow-up, 15.8 [5.9] years) in the WHI, 2128 men and women (mean [SD] follow-up, 7.7 [1.8] years) in the FHS, 2114 men and women (mean [SD] follow-up, 20.9 [7.2] years) in the ARIC-Black, and 931 men and women (mean [SD] follow-up, 20.9 [7.2] years) in the ARIC-White. Data were collected from May 1989 to December 2018 and analyzed from February 2019 to May 2021.ExposureBlood DNA methylation.Main outcome and measureUsing a high-dimensional time-to-event elastic-net model for the association of 407 224 CpG sites with incident CHD in the SHS (749 events), this study selected the differentially methylated CpG positions (DMPs) selected in the SHS and evaluated them in the WHI (531 events), FHS (143 events), ARIC-Black (350 events), and ARIC-White (121 events) cohorts.ResultsThe median (IQR) age of participants in SHS was 55 (49-62) years, and 1359 participants (58.6%) were women. Elastic-net models selected 505 DMPs associated with incident CHD in the SHS beyond established risk factors, center, blood cell counts, and genetic principal components. Among those DMPs, 33 were commonly selected in 3 or 4 of the other cohorts and the pooled hazard ratios from the standard Cox models were significant at P < .05 for 10 of the DMPs. For example, the hazard ratio (95% CI) for CHD comparing the 90th and 10th percentiles of differentially methylated CpGs was 0.86 (0.78-0.95) for cg16604233 (tagged to COL11A2) and 1.23 (1.08-1.39) for cg09926486 (tagged to FRMD5). Some of the DMPs were consistent in the direction of the association; others showed associations in opposite directions across cohorts. Untargeted independent elastic-net models of CHD showed distinct DMPs, genes, and network of genes in the 5 cohorts.Conclusions and relevanceIn this multi-cohort study, blood-based DNAm findings supported an association between a complex blood epigenomic signature and CHD that was largely different across populations.

Project description:Higher lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A(2)(Lp-PLA2) activity is associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD), making Lp-PLA2 a potential therapeutic target. PLA2G7 variants associated with Lp-PLA2 activity could evaluate whether this relationship is causal.A meta-analysis including a total of 12 studies (5 prospective, 4 case-control, 1 case-only, and 2 cross-sectional studies; n=26 118) was undertaken to examine the association of the following: (1) Lp-PLA2 activity versus cardiovascular biomarkers and risk factors and CHD events (2 prospective studies; n=4884); (2) PLA2G7 single-nucleotide polymorphisms and Lp-PLA2 activity (3 prospective, 2 case-control, 2 cross-sectional studies; up to n=6094); and (3) PLA2G7 single-nucleotide polymorphisms and angiographic coronary artery disease (2 case-control, 1 case-only study; n=4971 cases) and CHD events (5 prospective, 2 case-control studies; n=5523). Lp-PLA2 activity correlated with several CHD risk markers. Hazard ratios for CHD events for the top versus bottom quartile of Lp-PLA2 activity were 1.61 (95% confidence interval, 1.31 to 1.99) and 1.17 (95% confidence interval, 0.91 to 1.51) after adjustment for baseline traits. Of 7 single-nucleotide polymorphisms, rs1051931 (A379V) showed the strongest association with Lp-PLA2 activity, with VV subjects having 7.2% higher activity than AAs. Genotype was not associated with risk markers, angiographic coronary disease (odds ratio, 1.03; 95% confidence interval, 0.80 to 1.32), or CHD events (odds ratio, 0.98; 95% confidence interval, 0.82 to 1.17).Unlike Lp-PLA2 activity, PLA2G7 variants associated with modest effects on Lp-PLA2 activity were not associated with cardiovascular risk markers, coronary atheroma, or CHD. Larger association studies, identification of single-nucleotide polymorphisms with larger effects, or randomized trials of specific Lp-PLA2 inhibitors are needed to confirm or refute a contributory role for Lp-PLA2 in CHD.
