Zhao CH. The association between the single-nucleotide polymorphism of site rs1333040 in region 9p21 and the risk of coronary heart disease in Chinese population. Acta Cardiol 2024:1-10. [PMID: 39145594 DOI: 10.1080/00015385.2024.2391132] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2023] [Revised: 02/26/2024] [Accepted: 08/06/2024] [Indexed: 08/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Rs1333040 is the single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) related with coronary heart disease (CHD). The aim of the present study is to examine the association between rs1333040 polymorphism genotypes and CHD and to further explore the molecular mechanism in Chinese population. METHODS A case-control study was used in this study, including 500 CHD patients and 500 control subjects. CHD patients and controls were distinguished by coronary angiography. Genotypes of rs1333040 were determined on the Agena MassARRAY system. Statistical analysis was conducted by SPSS (Ver 16.0) and plink (Ver. 1.07, Shaun Purcell). RESULTS Fisher's exact test by plink indicated a significant difference in the allele distribution between cases and controls, the allele T may be associated with a higher risk of CHD (p = 0.012, odds ratio (OR) = 1.258). The serum levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (p = 0.029) and Gensini score (p = 0.008) distributed differently in patients with various alleles. In the recessive model, the levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and apolipoprotein A (ApoA) were higher in the TC + CC genotype than in the TT genotype. The TC + TT genotype was found to be risk factors against CHD in a dominant model (OR = 1.278, p = 0.014). The TC + TT genotype along with multiple risk factors significantly positively correlated with the risk of CHD. CONCLUSIONS The present study investigates the association between the rs1333040 polymorphism genotypes and CHD. The T allele of rs1333040 is the susceptibility site of CHD. The interaction between SNP and various risk factors plays an important role in the development of CHD.

Cell Tissue Res 2023; 394:455-469. [PMID: 37907763 DOI: 10.1007/s00441-023-03836-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2023] [Accepted: 10/02/2023] [Indexed: 11/02/2023]
Abstract
Excessive proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) contribute to the intimal hyperplasia in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients after percutaneous coronary intervention. We aimed to investigate the role of lncRNA cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2B antisense RNA 1 (CDKN2B-AS1) in VSMC proliferation and migration, as well as the underlying mechanism. T2DM model mice with carotid balloon injury were used in vivo and mouse aortic vascular smooth muscle cells (MOVAS) stimulated by insulin were used in vitro to assess the role of CDKN2B-AS1 in VSMC proliferation and migration following vascular injury in T2DM state. To investigate cell viability and migration, MTT assay and Transwell assay were conducted. To elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms, the methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction, RNA immunoprecipitation, RNA-pull down, co-immunoprecipitation, and chromatin immunoprecipitation were performed. In vivo, CDKN2B-AS1 was up-regulated in common carotid artery tissues. In vitro, insulin treatment increased CDKN2B-AS1 level, enhanced MOVAS cell proliferation and migration, while the promoting effect was reversed by CDKN2B-AS1 knockdown. CDKN2B-AS1 forms a complex with enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) and DNA methyltransferase (cytosine-5) 1 (DNMT1) to regulate smooth muscle 22 alpha (SM22α) methylation levels. In insulin-stimulated cells, SM22α knockdown abrogated the inhibitory effect of CDKN2B-AS1 knockdown on cell viability and migration. Injection of lentivirus-sh-CDKN2B-AS1 relieved intimal hyperplasia in T2DM mice with carotid balloon injury. Up-regulation of CDKN2B-AS1 induced by insulin promotes cell proliferation and migration by targeting SM22α through forming a complex with EZH2 and DNMT1, thereby aggravating the intimal hyperplasia after vascular injury in T2DM.

BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 2022:8468202. [PMID: 36246967 PMCID: PMC9556174 DOI: 10.1155/2022/8468202] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2022] [Accepted: 09/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Materials and Methods 195 patients with ACS, 200 patients with LAS, and 234 control subjects were enrolled in this case-control study. Real-time PCR was used for ANRIL rs4977574 genotyping. SPSS software package (version 17.0, IBM, USA) was used for data analysis. Results A significant association between rs4977574 polymorphism and the risk of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular complications was found under the recessive model regardless of adjustment for nongenetic risk factors (OR = 1.551; p = 0.025). Moreover, the link between rs4977574 locus and serum levels of total cholesterol (p = 0.021) and LDL (p = 0.022) was detected. A separate analysis in subgroups demonstrated the association of rs4977574 polymorphism with increased risk of ACS under the recessive model (OR = 1.501; p = 0.048). No relation between rs4977574 site and LAS development was revealed (p > 0.05). Conclusion Obtained data suggested that ANRIL rs4977574-GG genotype can be a possible genetic marker for the development of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular complications in Ukrainian population.

[PMID: 36158791 PMCID: PMC9489913 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.946289] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2022] [Accepted: 08/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Several 9p21.3 variants, such as rs1333049, rs4977574, rs10757274, rs10757278, and rs10811661, identified from recent genome-wide association studies (GWASs) are reported to be associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) susceptibility but independent of dyslipidemia. This study investigated whether these 9p21.3 variants influenced lipid profiles. Methods and results By searching the PubMed and Cochrane databases, 101,099 individuals were included in the analysis. The consistent finding for the rs1333049 C allele on lipid profiles increased the triglyceride (TG) levels. Moreover, the rs4977574 G allele and the rs10757274 G allele, respectively, increased low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels. However, the rs10811661 C allele largely reduced LDL-C levels. Subgroup analyses indicated that the effects of the rs1333049 C allele, rs4977574 G allele, and rs10757274 G allele on lipid profiles were stronger in Whites compared with Asians. In contrast, the effect of the rs10811661 C allele on lipid profiles was stronger in Asians compared with Whites. Conclusion The rs1333049 C allele, rs4977574 G allele, and rs10757274 G allele of lncRNA, and the rs10811661 G allele of CDKN2A/2B had a significant influence on lipid levels, which may help the understanding of the underlying mechanisms between 9p21.3 variants and CAD.

[PMID: 34418317 PMCID: PMC8435436 DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.16849] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2020] [Revised: 06/05/2021] [Accepted: 07/31/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
It has been implied that there is a possible relationship between cyclin‐dependent protein kinase inhibitors antisense RNA 1 (CDKN2B‐AS1) gene rs4977574 A/G polymorphism and coronary heart disease (CHD) susceptibility. However, as the research results are discrepant, no distinct consensus on this issue has been reached so far. In order to further elaborate the latent association of the CDKN2B‐AS1 gene rs4977574 A/G polymorphism and CHD, this present meta‐analysis was conducted. There were 40,979 subjects of 17 individual studies in the present meta‐analysis. The pooled odds ratios (ORs) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated to determine the association strength. Considering the significant heterogeneity among the individual studies, the random‐effect models were used. In the current meta‐analysis, a significant association between CDKN2B‐AS1 gene rs4977574 A/G polymorphism and CHD was found under allelic (OR: 1.18, 95% CI: 1.08–1.29, p = 4.83×10−4), recessive (OR: 1.36, 95% CI: 1.11–1.67, p = 0.003), dominant (OR: 0.71, 95% CI: 0.58–0.86, p = 6.26×10−4), heterozygous (OR:1.210, 95% CI: 1.076–1.360, p = 0.001), homozygous (OR: 1.394, 95% CI: 1.163–1.671, p = 3.31×10−4) and additive (OR: 1.180, 95% CI: 1.075–1.295, p = 4.83×10−4) genetic models. A more significant association between them was found in the Asian population than that in the whole population under these genetic models (p < 0.05). However, no significant association between them was found in the Caucasian population (p > 0.05). CDKN2B‐AS1 gene rs4977574 A/G polymorphism was associated with CHD susceptibility, especially in the Asian population. G allele of CDKN2B‐AS1 gene rs4977574 A/G polymorphism is the risk allele for CHD.

A 3' Untranslated Region Polymorphism of CTNNB1 (Rs2953) Alters MiR-3161 Binding and Affects the Risk of Ischemic Stroke and Coronary Artery Disease in Chinese Han Population. Eur Neurol 2021; 84:85-95. [PMID: 33789307 DOI: 10.1159/000514543] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2020] [Accepted: 12/31/2020] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND CTNNB1 is reported to be related to the pathological process of ischemic stroke (IS) and coronary artery disease (CAD). Polymorphism located in the 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of a gene might affect gene expression by modifying binding sites for microRNAs (miRNAs). This study aimed to analyze the association between polymorphism rs2953, which locates in the 3'UTR of CTNNB1, and the risk of IS and CAD. METHODS The CTNNB1 messenger RNA (mRNA) expression level in peripheral venous blood was measured. In total, 533 patients with IS, 500 patients with CAD, and 531 healthy individuals were genotyped by Sequenom Mass-Array technology. The binding of miR-3161 to CTNNB1 was determined by dual-luciferase reporter assay. RESULTS The CTNNB1 mRNA expression level for the IS group was significantly lower than that for the control group. Rs2953 was significantly associated with both IS risk and CAD risk. Significant association was also found between polymorphism rs2953 and many conventional factors, such as serum lipid level, blood coagulation markers, blood glucose level, and homocysteine level in patients. Rs2953 T allele introduced a binding site to miRNA-3161 and thus decreased luciferase activity. CONCLUSION Polymorphism rs2953 is associated with the risk of both IS and CAD. Moreover, polymorphism rs2953 (T) introduces a binding site to miRNA-3161 and thus decreases luciferase activity in cell lines.

Abstract
The relationship between Cyclin-Dependent Kinase Inhibitors 2B Antisense RNA 1 (CDKN2B-AS1) variants rs1333049 G/C and rs4977574 A/G and the risk of coronary heart disease is unclear. We conducted an update analysis incorporating odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals to assess the correlation. Furthermore, we used in silico analysis to investigate the genes and proteins that interact with CDKN2B. Fifty case-control studies with a sample size of 35,915 cases and 48,873 controls were involved. We revealed that the rs1333049 C allele could increase the risk of coronary heart disease in the overall analysis (allele comparison, OR = 1.13, 95%CI = 1.05–1.21, P = 0.001; homozygous contrast, OR = 1.29, 95%CI = 1.11–1.49, P = 0.001; dominant comparison, OR = 1.14, 95%CI = 1.03–1.27, P = 0.011; recessive comparison, OR = 1.21, 95%CI = 1.10–1.34, P < 0.001). In subgroup analysis, positive correlations were detected in studies involving West and East Asians and in population-based control studies. The rs4977574 G allele was also a risk factor for coronary heart disease (allelic comparison, P = 0.001; heterozygous comparison, P = 0.003; homozygous comparison, P < 0.001; dominant comparison, P = 0.001). These results indicate correlation of CDKN2B-AS1 rs1333049 G/C and rs4977574 A/G variants may be correlated with the risk of coronary heart disease.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play key roles in the development of atherosclerosis through the inflammatory pathway. This study aimed to investigate the role of lncRNA cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2B antisense RNA 1 (CDKN2B-AS1) in atherosclerosis via its function in A disintegrin and metalloprotease 10 (ADAM10). METHODS Initially, the expression of CDKN2B-AS1 and ADAM10 in atherosclerotic plaque tissues and THP-1 macrophage-derived foam cells was determined, after which the cholesterol efflux rate of macrophages was calculated. Interaction between CDKN2B-AS1 and ADAM10 was analyzed, after which, expression of CDKN2B-AS1 and ADAM10 were altered to explore their effects on inflammatory response and cholesterol efflux. The aforementioned findings were further intended to be validated by the atherosclerosis mouse model experiments. RESULTS Atherosclerotic plaque tissue and THP-1 macrophage-derived foam cells exhibited downregulated CDKN2B-AS1 and upregulated ADAM10. Upon overexpressing CDKN2B-AS1 or silencing ADAM10, lipid accumulation was reduced and cholesterol efflux was increased. CDKN2B-AS1 located in the nucleus could bind to DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) to enhance methylation of ADAM10 promoter, leading to suppressed atherosclerotic inflammatory response and promoted cholesterol efflux. CONCLUSION Altogether, lncRNA CDKN2B-AS1 can inhibit the transcription of ADAM10 via DNMT1-mediated ADAM10 DNA methylation, consequently preventing inflammatory response of atherosclerosis and promoting cholesterol efflux.
