Association of Genes Related to Oxidative Stress with the Extent of Coronary Atherosclerosis
Oxidative stress is believed to play a critical role in atherosclerosis initiation and progression. In line with this, in a group of 1099 subjects, we determined eight single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) related to oxidative stress (<i>PON1</i> c.575A>G, <i>MPO</i> c.−4...

description | Oxidative stress is believed to play a critical role in atherosclerosis initiation and progression. In line with this, in a group of 1099 subjects, we determined eight single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) related to oxidative stress (<i>PON1</i> c.575A>G, <i>MPO</i> c.−463G>A, <i>SOD2</i> c.47T>C, <i>GCLM</i> c.−590C>T, <i>NOS3</i> c.894G>T, <i>NOS3</i> c.−786T>C, <i>CYBA</i> c.214C>T, and <i>CYBA</i> c.−932A>G) and assessed the extent of atherosclerosis in coronary arteries based on Gensini score. An increased risk of having a Gensini score in the higher half of the distribution was observed for the <i>PON1</i> c.575G allele (odds ratio (OR) = 1.27, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.004–1.617, <i>p</i> = 0.046). Next, the genetic risk score (GRS) for the additive effect of the total number of pro-oxidative alleles was assessed. We noted an increase in the risk of having a Gensini score above the median with the maximum number of risk alleles (OR = 2.47, 95% CI: 1.19–5.23, <i>p</i> = 0.014). A univariate Spearman’s test revealed significant correlation between the total number of pro-oxidant alleles (GRS) and the Gensini score (ρ = 0.068, <i>p</i> = 0.03). In conclusion, the <i>PON1</i> c.575A>G variant and the high number of risk alleles (GRS) were independent risk factors for a high Gensini score. We suggest, however, that GRS might occur as a more valuable component in adding a predictive value to the genetic background of atherosclerosis. |
