Association between Apo B, LDL-R and PCSK9 gene polymorphisms with coronary artery diseases in Egyptians. Mol Biol Rep 2024; 51:752. [PMID: 38874786 DOI: 10.1007/s11033-024-09607-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/02/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Many studies have focused on the significance of lipid regulatory genes in the pathophysiology of Coronary artery disease (CAD). ApoB XbaI (rs693) and EcoRI (rs1042031) single nucleoid polymorphisms (SNPs) were investigated to detect whether they are risk factors for CAD. Till now, this association remains uncertain. SMARCA4 (rs1122608) SNP has directly related to dyslipidemia. Loss of function mutations (LOF) in PCSK9 result in a reduction in LDL cholesterol and are associated with protection from the development of CAD. METHODS This study was conducted on 54 CAD patients who were admitted at Internal Medicine Specialized Hospital (Cardiology Department) and 47 healthy controls. Peripheral blood samples were taken from both groups. DNA was extracted from EDTA-blood samples, then PCR- RFLP for ApoB XbaI (rs693) and EcoRI (rs1042031), SMARCA4 (rs1122608) and PCSK9 (rs505151) SNPs was done. RESULTS No statistically significant difference was found between patients and controls as regard EcoRI SNP. XbaI (rs693) X + X + genotype was significantly higher in control group (P = 0.0355). SMARCA4 (TT, GT + TT) genotypes, and T allele (P < 0.001); PCSK9 AG genotype and G allele (P = 0.027 and 0.032 respectively) were more frequent in CAD patients than controls. CONCLUSION SMARCA4 (rs1122608) and PCSK9 (rs505151) SNPs are significantly accompanying with the risk of CAD development in the Egyptian population. X + X + genotype appeared to have a protective effect against CAD. However, no observed association between EcoRI (rs1042031) and the risk of CAD development was found.

Role of APOC3 3238C/G, APOB 12669G/A and SCARB1 1050C/T polymorphisms, their expression in patients of HIV-associated lipodystrophy. Heliyon 2024; 10:e30519. [PMID: 38742060 PMCID: PMC11089352 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e30519] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2024] [Revised: 04/24/2024] [Accepted: 04/29/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Apolipoproteins and Scavenger Receptor Class B1 (SCARB1) proteins are involved in the etiology of HIV-associated lipodystrophy (HIVLD). APOC3 3238C/G, APOB 12669G/A and SCARB1 1050C/T polymorphisms were linked with increased level of APOB, TG, HDL-C and risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Hence, we evaluated the genetic variations of APOC3 3238C/G, APOB 12669G/A and SCARB1 1050C/T in 187 patients of HIV (64 with HIVLD, 123 without HIVLD) and 139 healthy controls using PCR-RFLP and expression by qPCR. The genotypes of SCARB1 1050 TT and APOB 12669AA showed a risk to severe HIVLD (P = 0.23, OR = 4.95; P = 0.16, OR = 2.02). The APOC3 3238 GG genotype was associated with a lesser risk of severe HIVLD (P = 0.07, OR = 0.22). The APOB 12669 GA genotype was associated with a greater risk of HIVLD severity in patients with impaired LDL, triglyceride (TG), and cholesterol levels (P = 0.34, OR = 4.13; P = 0.25, OR = 3.64; P = 0.26, OR = 5.47). Similarly, APOB 12669AA genotypes in the presence of impaired triglyceride levels displayed the susceptibility to severity of HIVLD (P = 0.77, OR = 2.91). APOB 12669 GA genotype along with impaired HDL and cholesterol levels indicated an increased risk for HIVLD acquisition among patients without HIVLD (P = 0.42, OR = 2.42; P = 0.26, OR = 2.27). In patients with and without HIVLD, APOC3 3238CG genotypes having impaired cholesterol and glucose levels had higher risk for severity and development of HIVLD (P = 0.13, OR = 2.84, P = 0.34, OR = 1.58; P = 0.71, OR = 1.86; P = 0.14, OR = 2.30). An increased expression of APOB and SCARB1 genes were observed in patients with HIVLD (+0.51 vs. -0.93; +4.78 vs. +3.29), and decreased expression of APOC3 gene was observed in patients with HIVLD (-0.35 vs. -1.65). In conclusion, the polymorphisms mentioned above were not associated with the modulation of HIVLD. However, in the presence of impaired triglyceride, HDL, cholesterol and glucose levels, APOB 12669AA and 12669 GA, APOC3 3238CG genotypes indicated a risk for the development and severity of HIVLD.

SNPs in apolipoproteins contribute to sex-dependent differences in blood lipids before and after a high-fat dietary challenge in healthy U.S. adults. BMC Nutr 2022; 8:95. [PMID: 36050800 PMCID: PMC9438272 DOI: 10.1186/s40795-022-00592-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2021] [Accepted: 08/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The effect of genetic polymorphisms on fasting blood lipid levels have been widely studied but the effects of these within the context of a high-fat meal challenge remain less characterized. The current study aimed to investigate the association of SNPs in lipoprotein-related genes with blood lipid profiles in healthy adults in the U.S. Methods Subjects (n = 393) between 18–66 years of age with BMIs ranging from 18.5–45 kg/m2 were enrolled the cross-sectional Nutritional Phenotyping Study. Among them, 349 subjects (men: 48%; women: 52%) gave consent for genotyping. SNPs in APOA5, APOB, APOC3, APOE, and LDLR were assessed. The association between lipid markers and genotypes was tested separately for each SNP with analysis of variance (ANOVA), adjusted for sex, age, and BMI. We also examined two-factor interactions between SNPs and sex, age, or BMI. Results Women carrying the C allele of rs3135506 in APOA5 or men carrying the C allele of rs429358 in APOE had reduced HDL-cholesterol levels during fasting and postprandially. The C allele in APOE was also correlated to increased LDL-C levels. The TT genotype of rs2854116 in APOC3 was associated with elevated total cholesterol. Additive effect of the risk alleles of APOA5 and APOE or APOC3 and APOE was detected. Nevertheless, the tested SNPs had little impact on the postprandial triglyceride responses to the high-fat challenge meal. We found no significant effects of SNPs in APOB (rs1042034) or LDLR (rs2228671) on triglycerides, cholesterol, or free fatty acid levels. Conclusions In healthy adults, fasting and postprandial cholesterol levels are strongly correlated with the tested APOA5, APOE, and APOC3 genotypes. Sex contributes to the genetic impact of the tested SNPs on lipid profiles. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02367287.

Abstract
Apolipoprotein B (APOB) is associated with the development of atherosclerosis and consequently in the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) physiopathology. Single number variants (SNVs) in apolipoprotein B gene (APOB) influence over the susceptibility for this syndrome. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of the rs1469513, rs673548, rs676210, and rs1042034 SNVs and serum levels of APOB in the risk of ACS in a population from western Mexico. We included 300 patients in the group of cases (ACSG) and 300 individuals in the control group (CG). APOB levels were evaluated by immunonephelometry, and SNVs were genotyped with TaqMan probes. We found significant allelic and genotypic differences between groups for rs673548 and rs676210 (OR = 1.33, p=0.030, OR = 2.69, p < 0.001) and rs1042034 (OR = 0.50, p=0.037) SNVs. We found a risk haplotype TAGT (OR: 2.14, IC 1.50–3.04, p < 0.001). Our findings support a significant risk association between rs673548 and rs676210 variants for ACS; meanwhile, rs1042034 could be considered protective factor in a western Mexican population. Also, in this population, haplotype TAGT may confer 2.14 times a higher risk. APOB serum levels were compared by genotype variants in both groups without any significant statistical difference.

Abstract
In the current study, APOB (rs1052031) genotype-guided proteomic analysis was performed in a cohort of Pakistani population. A total of 700 study subjects, including Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) patients (n = 480) and healthy individuals (n = 220) as a control group were included in the study. Genotyping was carried out by using tetra primer-amplification refractory mutation system-based polymerase chain reaction (T-ARMS-PCR) whereas mass spectrometry (Orbitrap MS) was used for label free quantification of serum samples. Genotypic frequency of GG genotype was found to be 90.1%, while 6.4% was for GA genotype and 3.5% was for AA genotypes in CAD patients. In the control group, 87.2% healthy subjects were found to have GG genotype, 11.8% had GA genotype, and 0.9% were with AA genotypes. Significant (p = 0.007) difference was observed between genotypic frequencies in the patients and the control group. The rare allele AA was found to be strongly associated with the CAD [OR: 4 (1.9-16.7)], as compared to the control group in recessive genetic model (p = 0.04). Using label free proteomics, altered expression of 60 significant proteins was observed. Enrichment analysis of these protein showed higher number of up-regulated pathways, including phosphatidylcholine-sterol O-acyltransferase activator activity, cholesterol transfer activity, and sterol transfer activity in AA genotype of rs562338 (G>A) as compared to the wild type GG genotype. This study provides a deeper insight into CAD pathobiology with reference to proteogenomics, and proving this approach as a good platform for identifying the novel proteins and signaling pathways in relation to cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Background Drug response is below genetic influence, proven by the genetic variants. Pharmacogenetics trials are performed in many diseases, including coronary artery disease. This study was designed to determine the genetic polymorphism (rs676210) Pro2739leu G > A in the lipid metabolism-related gene (ApoB gene) and its pharmacogenetic role in the response to atorvastatin drug in a sample of Iraqi population with coronary artery disease (CAD). Results Significant differences of genotype distribution in CAD patients and controls were observed in ApoB+ 8216 in Iraqi population from Hardy Weinberg Analysis. It also found that dramatic difference of low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) level in response to 40 mg/day of atorvastatin therapy, the minor allele (A) observed a greater LDL-C lowering than the wild type allele (G). In ANOVA analysis, the result showed that the rs676210, Pro2739Leu, in ApoB gene increased non significantly, but gradually in plasma level of total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), and oxidize low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) in the order of genotype AA, GA, and GG in response to 40 mg atorvastatin. Conclusion We found the results highlighted the function of the rs676210, Pro2739Leu, in the ApoB gene in CAD etiology, and the findings support this variant’s impact in predicting the response of (LDL-C) to 40 mg of atorvastatin therapy. ApoB gene polymorphism (rs676210, Pro2739Leu), specifically the AA genotype, may help to identify individuals who will profit from atorvastatin's lowering effects.

Abstract
Chronic liver disease, with viral or non-viral etiology, is endemic in many countries and is a growing burden in Asia. Among the Asian countries, Pakistan has the highest prevalence of chronic liver disease. Despite this, the genetic susceptibility to chronic liver disease in this country has not been investigated. We performed a comprehensive analysis of the most robustly associated common genetic variants influencing chronic liver disease in a cohort of individuals from Pakistan. A total of 587 subjects with chronic liver disease and 68 healthy control individuals were genotyped for the HSD17B13 rs7261356, MBOAT7 rs641738, GCKR rs1260326, PNPLA3 rs738409, TM6SF2 rs58542926 and PPP1R3B rs4841132 variants. The variants distribution between case and control group and their association with chronic liver disease were tested by chi-square and binary logistic analysis, respectively. We report for the first time that HSD17B13 variant results in a 50% reduced risk for chronic liver disease; while MBOAT7; GCKR and PNPLA3 variants increase this risk by more than 35% in Pakistani individuals. Our genetic analysis extends the protective role of the HSD17B13 variant against chronic liver disease and disease risk conferred by the MBOAT7; GCKR and PNPLA3 variants in the Pakistani population.

Abstract
Aim: Hypertriglyceridemia is a type of dyslipidemia that contributes to atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease. Variants in lipoprotein lipase (LPL), apolipoprotein CII (APOC2), apolipoprotein AV (APOA5), glycosylphosphatidylinositol- anchored high-density lipoprotein-binding protein 1 (GPIHBP1), lipase maturation factor 1 (LMF1), and glucokinase regulator (GCKR) are responsible for hypertriglyceridemia. We investigated the molecular basis of severe hypertriglyceridemia in adult patients referred to the Clinical Laboratory at Fukuoka University Hospital. Methods: Twenty-three adult patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia (> 1,000 mg/dL, 11.29 mmol/L) were selected. The coding regions of candidate genes were sequenced by next-generation sequencing. Forty-nine genes reportedly associated with hypertriglyceridemia were analyzed. Results: In the 23 patients, we detected 70 variants: 28 rare and 42 common ones. Among the 28 rare variants with < 1% allele frequency, p.I4533L in APOB, p.M490I in MLXIPL, p.L152M in NCAN, and p.S264T in TIMD4 were novel. We did not observe single gene homozygous or compound heterozygous disease-causing rare variants in any of the 23 hypertriglyceridemia cases. However, in silico algorithms and previous reports indicated that five rare variants, APOA5 (p.T184S), GCKR (c.354 + 1G>A), LMF1 (p.G410R), and LRP1 (p.G813R; p.R2173Q), and seven common variants, APOA5 (pG185C), APOE (p.C130R; p.E262K/p.E263K), GCKR (p.V103M), GPIHBP1 (p.C14F), LRP1 (p.Y4054F), and MLXIPL (p.Q241H), can cause hypertriglyceridemia. However, all five disease-causing rare variants detected in this study were heterozygous. Conclusions: The prevalence of disease-causing rare variants in candidate genes in severe hypertriglyceridemia patients was low. The major causes of severe hypertriglyceridemia were not single gene abnormalities, but involved multiple gene variations and environmental factors.

Abstract
The apolipoprotein (Apo) B gene (APOB) is a susceptible gene for
dyslipidemia. The purpose of this investigation was to explore the relationship between
the APOB rs1042034 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and serum lipid
levels in the Maonan and Han populations. A total of 598 Maonan participants and 609 Han
participants were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length
polymorphism, and the genotypes were also verified by sequencing. There were no
differences in genotype and allele frequencies between the 2 ethnic groups or between
males and females. The levels of triglyceride (TG) in Maonans were higher and high-density
lipoprotein cholesterol was lower in the A allele carriers than the A allele noncarriers;
the A allele carriers in Hans had higher TG levels and lower ApoA1/ApoB ratio than the A
allele noncarriers (P < .05 for all). Subgroup analysis showed that
the A allele carriers in Maonan females had higher TG levels and the A allele carriers in
Han females had higher TG levels and lower ApoA1/ApoB ratio than the A allele noncarriers
(P < .05 for all). In our study populations, there may be ethnicity-
and/or sex-specific associations between the APOB rs1042034 SNP and serum
lipid levels.

Phenotypic severity in a family with MEND syndrome is directly associated with the accumulation of potentially functional variants of cholesterol homeostasis genes. Mol Genet Genomic Med 2019; 7:e931.

Abstract
Background Male EBP disorder with neurologic defects (MEND) syndrome is an X‐linked disease caused by hypomorphic mutations in the EBP (emopamil‐binding protein) gene. Modifier genes may explain the clinical variability among individuals who share a primary mutation. Methods We studied four males (Patient 1 to Patient 4) exhibiting a descending degree of phenotypic severity from a family with MEND syndrome. To identify candidate modifier genes that explain the phenotypic variability, variants of homeostasis cholesterol genes identified by whole‐exome sequencing (WES) were ranked according to the predicted magnitude of their effect through an in‐house scoring system. Results Twenty‐seven from 105 missense variants found in 45 genes of the four exomes were considered significant (−5 to −9 scores). We found a direct genotype–phenotype association based on the differential accumulation of potentially functional gene variants among males. Patient 1 exhibited 17 variants, both Patients 2 and 3 exhibited nine variants, and Patient 4 exhibited only five variants. Conclusion We conclude that APOA5 (rs3135506), ABCA1 (rs9282541), and APOB (rs679899 and rs12714225) are the most relevant candidate modifier genes in this family. Relative accumulation of the deficiencies associated with variants of these genes along with other lesser deficiencies in other genes appears to explain the variable expressivity in MEND syndrome.

Abstract
Oxidatively modified low-density lipoproteins (oxLDL) play an important role in the occurrence and progression of atherosclerosis. To identify the genetic factors influencing the oxLDL levels, we have genotyped 776 DNA samples of Russian individuals for 196,725 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using the Cardio-MetaboChip (Illumina, USA) and conducted genome-wide association study (GWAS). Fourteen common variants in the locus including APOB gene were significantly associated with the oxLDL levels (P < 2.18 × 10−7). These variants explained only 6% of the variation in the oxLDL levels. Then, we assessed the contribution of rare coding variants of APOB gene to the oxLDL levels. Individuals with the extreme oxLDL levels (48 with the lowest and 48 with the highest values) were selected for targeted sequencing of the region including APOB gene. To evaluate the contribution of the SNPs to the oxLDL levels we used various statistical methods for the association analysis of rare variants: WST, SKAT, and SKAT-O. We revealed that both synonymous and nonsynonymous SNPs affected the oxLDL levels. For the joint analysis of the rare and common variants, we conducted the SKAT-C testing and found a group of 15 SNPs significantly associated with the oxLDL levels (P = 2.14 × 10−9). Our results indicate that the oxLDL levels depend on both common and rare variants of the APOB gene.

Association of APOB and LIPC polymorphisms with type 2 diabetes in Chinese Han population. Gene 2018; 672:150-155. [PMID: 29883758 DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2018.06.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2017] [Revised: 05/19/2018] [Accepted: 06/04/2018] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Apolipoprotein B (APOB), and hepatic lipase (LIPC) genes have been shown to play a key role in lipid metabolism in type 2 diabetes (T2D). This study aimed to investigate the association of the three polymorphisms (rs679899 in APOB and rs6078 and rs6083 in LIPC) with T2D and related clinical quantitative traits. METHODS We conducted a case-control study in Chinese Han population, with a total of 929 T2D patients and 1044 healthy subjects in Chinese Han population. Polymorphisms were genotyped by MassARRAY Genotyping System. RESULTS The risk allele G of the polymorphism rs679899 was related to T2D (odds ratio (OR): 1.207, 95% confidence interval (CL): 1.006-1.448, P = 0.043) and the polymorphism rs679899 was associated with glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) levels (P = 0.001). We also showed that the polymorphism rs6083 was associated with cholesterol (CHOL) levels (P = 0.012), triglyceride (TG) levels (P = 0.040), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL) levels (P = 0.033). No significant difference in genotypic frequencies of rs6078 and rs6083 was observed between T2D patients and controls. CONCLUSION This study suggests that the APOB polymorphism rs679899 is associated with type 2 diabetes and GGT levels, while the LIPC polymorphism rs6083 may influence CHOL, TG, and LDL levels in Chinese Han population.
