Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS RNF213 is a susceptibility gene for moyamoya disease and vasospastic angina, with a second hit considered necessary for their development. Elevated thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPO-Ab) levels have been observed in both diseases, suggesting a possible role of TPO-Ab as a second hit for developing RNF213-related vasculopathy. We investigated the association of TPO-Ab levels with RNF213-related ischemic stroke (IS)/transient ischemic attack (TIA), other than moyamoya disease. METHODS From the National Cerebral and Cardiovascular Center Genome Registry, a multicenter, prospective, observational study, we enrolled patients with IS/TIA who were admitted within 1 week of onset. Patients with IS/TIA due to definite moyamoya disease or hemorrhagic stroke were excluded. Participants underwent genotyping for RNF213 p. R4810K, and baseline characteristics and TPO-Ab levels were compared between RNF213 p. R4810K variant carriers and non-carriers. RESULTS In total, 2090 IS/TIA patients were analyzed [733 women (35.1%); median age 74 (interquartile range, 63-81) years, baseline NIHSS score 3 (2-6)], and 85 (4.1%) of them carried the variant. Median TPO-Ab levels were significantly higher in variant carriers (8.5 IU/mL vs. 2.1 IU/mL, p < 0.01), who also showed a higher frequency of elevated TPO-Ab levels (>16 IU/mL) (27.1% vs. 4.4%). In the multivariate analysis, presence of the RNF213 p. R4810K variant (adjusted odds ratio, 12.42; 95% confidential interval, 6.23-24.75) was significantly associated with elevated TPO-Ab levels. CONCLUSIONS Elevated TPO-Ab levels may be significantly associated with presence of the RNF213 p. R4810K variant in IS/TIA patients. Thus, TPO-Ab may inherently modify IS/TIA development in RNF213 p. R4810K variant carriers.
