Insights
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in TNIP1, MPHOSPH6, and ZNF208 genes are associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) risk in the Chinese Han population. These findings identify potential genetic risk factors for CAD.
Area of Science:
- Genetics
- Cardiovascular Disease Research
- Population Genetics
Background:
- Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading cause of death globally.
- Genetic factors play a significant role in the development of CAD.
Purpose of the Study:
- To investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in TNIP1, MPHOSPH6, and ZNF208 genes and the risk of CAD.
- To analyze these associations in a Chinese Han population.
Main Methods:
- Recruited 596 CAD patients and 603 healthy controls.
- Genotyped fifteen SNPs using Sequenom MassARRAY.
- Performed association analysis using Logistic Regression, Odds Ratios (ORs), and 95% Confidence Intervals (CIs).
Main Results:
- The rs960709 SNP in TNIP1 was significantly associated with CAD risk (OR = 0.78, P=0.010).
- The rs1056654 A/A allele showed a protective association with CAD in a recessive model (OR = 0.55, P = 0.018).
- Three SNPs in ZNF208 (rs2188971, rs8103163, rs7248488) were also associated with CAD risk. Haplotype analyses revealed significant associations for CTA and ATAA haplotypes.
Conclusions:
- SNPs in TNIP1, ZNF208, and MPHOSPH6 are associated with CAD in the Chinese Han population.
- These identified SNPs may serve as potential genetic risk factors for CAD.
Introduction:
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common disease and among the leading cause of death in the general population. Inherited factors are involved in the pathogenesis of CAD.
Aims:
Our study examined whether SNPs in TNIP1, MPHOSPH6, ZNF208 to be associated with CAD risk in a Chinese Han population. We recruited 596 CAD patients, 603 controls and genotyping fifteen SNPs using Sequenom MassARRAY. For association analysis between TNIP1, MPHOSPH6 and ZNF208 and CAD was determined by Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) using Logistic Regression.
Results:
The results indicated in allel model, the rs960709 in TNIP1 was associated with CAD risk (OR = 0.78, 95%CI = 0.65-0.94, P=0.010). The genetic model results showed that the rs960709 (A/G) polymorphism was associated with the risk of developing CAD in codominant, Dominant and Log-additive. The rs1056654 A/A allele and CAD patients compared to the healthy controls in recessive model (OR = 0.55, 95%CI = 0.34-0.90; P = 0.018). We also found that three SNPS in ZNF208 associated with CAD, respectively, rs2188971, rs8103163 and rs7248488.Linkage disequilibrium (LD) and haplotype analyses of the SNPs found that the CTA haplotype (rs1056675, rs1056654, rs11859599) and rs2188972A/rs2188971T/rs8103163A/rs7248488A (ATAA) were associated with CAD.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, the present study provided evidence that SNPs in the TNIP1, ZNF208 and MPHOSPH6 were associated with CAD in Chinese Han population. It is possible that these SNPs are CAD risk factors and these data can provide.
