Trypanosoma cruzi dysregulates expression profile of piRNAs in primary human cardiac fibroblasts during early infection phase. Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2023; 13:1083379. [PMID: 36936778 PMCID: PMC10017870 DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2023.1083379] [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: 10/28/2022] [Accepted: 02/13/2023] [Indexed: 03/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas Disease, causes severe morbidity, mortality, and economic burden worldwide. Though originally endemic to Central and South America, globalization has led to increased parasite presence in most industrialized countries. About 40% of infected individuals will develop cardiovascular, neurological, and/or gastrointestinal pathologies. Accumulating evidence suggests that the parasite induces alterations in host gene expression profiles in order to facilitate infection and pathogenesis. The role of regulatory gene expression machinery during T. cruzi infection, particularly small noncoding RNAs, has yet to be elucidated. In this study, we aim to evaluate dysregulation of a class of sncRNAs called piRNAs during early phase of T. cruzi infection in primary human cardiac fibroblasts by RNA-Seq. We subsequently performed in silico analysis to predict piRNA-mRNA interactions. We validated the expression of these selected piRNAs and their targets during early parasite infection phase by stem loop qPCR and qPCR, respectively. We found about 26,496,863 clean reads (92.72%) which mapped to the human reference genome. During parasite challenge, 441 unique piRNAs were differentially expressed. Of these differentially expressed piRNAs, 29 were known and 412 were novel. In silico analysis showed several of these piRNAs were computationally predicted to target and potentially regulate expression of genes including SMAD2, EGR1, ICAM1, CX3CL1, and CXCR2, which have been implicated in parasite infection, pathogenesis, and various cardiomyopathies. Further evaluation of the function of these individual piRNAs in gene regulation and expression will enhance our understanding of early molecular mechanisms contributing to infection and pathogenesis. Our findings here suggest that piRNAs play important roles in infectious disease pathogenesis and can serve as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

Development and validation of a predictive model of the impact of single nucleotide polymorphisms in the ICAM-1 gene on the risk of ischemic cardiomyopathy. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:977340. [PMID: 36440000 PMCID: PMC9684327 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.977340] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2022] [Accepted: 09/23/2022] [Indexed: 06/21/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previous research has linked single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the ICAM-1 gene to an increased risk of developing ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM); however, a diagnostic model of ICM according to the ICAM-1 variant has not yet been developed. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the correlation between SNPs in ICAM-1 and the presence of ICM, along with developing a diagnostic model for ICM based on the variants of the ICAM-1 gene. METHOD This study recruited a total of 252 patients with ICM and 280 healthy controls. In addition, all the participants were genotyped for SNPs in the ICAM-1 gene by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Using the training dataset of 371 people, we constructed a nomogram model based on ICAM-1 gene variants and clinical variables. To optimize the feature choice for the ICM risk model, a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression model was adopted. We also employed multivariable logistic regression analysis to build a prediction model by integrating the clinical characteristics chosen in the LASSO regression model. Following the receiver operating characteristic (ROC), a calibration plot and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to evaluate the discrimination, calibration, and clinical usefulness of the predictive model. RESULT The predictors involved in the prediction nomogram included age, smoking, diabetes, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, hemoglobin, N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, ejection fraction, and the rs5491 SNP. The nomogram model exhibited good discrimination ability, with the AUC value of ROC of 0.978 (95%CI: 0.967-0.989, P < 0.001) in the training group and 0.983 (95% CI: 0.969-0.998, P < 0.001) in the validation group. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test demonstrated good model calibration with consistency (P training group = 0.937; P validation group = 0.910). The DCA showed that the ICM nomogram was clinically beneficial, with the threshold probabilities ranging from 0.0 to 1.0. CONCLUSION The AT genotype in rs5491 of the ICAM-1 gene was associated with having a higher frequency of ICM. Individuals carrying the mutant AT genotype showed a 5.816-fold higher frequency of ICM compared with those with the AA genotype. ICM patients with the AT genotype also had a higher rate of cardiogenic death. We, therefore, developed a nomogram model that could offer an individualized prediction of ICM risk factors.

Abstract
Background Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the leading cause of human death worldwide. Genetic factors play an important role in the occurrence of CHD. Our study is designed to investigate the influence of CYP7B1 polymorphisms on CHD risk. Methods In this case–control study, 508 CHD patients and 510 healthy individuals were recruited to determine the correlation between CYP7B1 polymorphisms (rs7836768, rs6472155, and rs2980003) and CHD risk. The associations were evaluated by computing odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) with logistic regression analysis. The association between SNP-SNP interaction and CHD susceptibility was carried out by multifactor dimensionality reduction analyses. Results Our study found that rs6472155 is significantly associated with an increased risk of CHD in age > 60 years (OR 2.20, 95% CI = 1.07–4.49, p = 0.031), women (OR 3.17, 95% CI = 1.19–8.44, p = 0.021), and non-smokers (3.43, 95% CI = 1.16–10.09, p = 0.025). Rs2980003 polymorphism has a lower risk of CHD in drinkers (OR 0.47, 95% CI = 0.24–0.91, p = 0.025). Further analyses based on false-positive report probability validated these significant results. Besides, it was found that rs6472155 polymorphism was associated with uric acid level (p = 0.034). Conclusion Our study indicated that CYP7B1 polymorphisms are related to the risk of CHD, which provides a new perspective for prevent of CHD.

Association between MIF gene promoter rs755622 and susceptibility to coronary artery disease and inflammatory cytokines in the Chinese Han population. Sci Rep 2021; 11:8050. [PMID: 33850223 PMCID: PMC8044220 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-87580-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2020] [Accepted: 03/17/2021] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is an essential mediator of atherosclerotic plaque progression and instability leading to intracoronary thrombosis, therefore contributing to coronary artery disease (CAD). In this study, we investigated the relationship between MIF gene polymorphism and CAD in Chinese Han population. Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP, rs755622, rs1007888 and rs2096525) of MIF gene were genotyped by TaqMan genotyping assay in 1120 control participants and 1176 CAD patients. Coronary angiography was performed in all CAD patients and Gensini score was used to assess the severity of coronary artery lesions. The plasma levels of MIF and other inflammatory mediators were measured by ELISA. The CAD patients had a higher frequency of CC genotype and C allele of rs755622 compared with that in control subjects (CC genotype: 6.5% vs. 3.9%, P = 0.008, C allele: 24.0% vs. 20.6%, P = 0.005). The rs755622 CC genotype was associated with an increased risk of CAD (OR: 1.804, 95%CI: 1.221-2.664, P = 0.003). CAD patients with a variation of rs755622 CC genotype had significantly higher Gensini score compared with patients with GG or CG genotype (all P < 0.05). In addition, the circulating MIF level was highest in CAD patients carrying rs755622 CC genotype (40.7 ± 4.2 ng/mL) and then followed by GC (37.9 ± 3.4 ng/mL) or GG genotype (36.9 ± 3.7 ng/mL, all P < 0.01). Our study showed an essential relationship between the MIF gene rs755622 variation and CAD in Chinese Han population. Individuals who carrying MIF gene rs755622 CC genotype were more susceptible to CAD and had more severe coronary artery lesion. This variation also had a potential influence in circulating MIF levels.

Abstract
Yin et al. (Bioscience Reports (2019) 39, BSR20180923) recently published a meta-analysis about the association between the K469E (rs5498) polymorphism and risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). Authors included 14 studies based on their inclusion criteria. They indicated that only studies which their genotyping data were in Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) were included in their meta-analysis. They also tested HWE for these studies and found all the control groups in HWE. As their main finding, they concluded that ‘K469E polymorphism is associated with CHD risk and the K allele is a more significant risk factor for developing CHD amongst Chinese and Caucasians populations’. However, there seems to be presenting some mistakes in HWE test which strongly affects included studies and the final conclusion. Here we aim to comment on the issue.

Abstract
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a complex polygenic disease in which gene-environment interactions play a critical role in disease onset and progression. The Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) gene E469K polymorphism is one of the most commonly studied polymorphisms in this gene because of its association with CHD risks, but results were conflicting. The PubMed, Embase, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases were searched for case–control studies published up to November 2018. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were calculated to assess the association. Eleven eligible studies, comprising 3435 cases and 3199 controls, were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled result showed that the ICAM-1 gene E469K polymorphism was significantly associated with an increased risk of CHD (OR = 1.20, 95% CI = 1.11–1.29, for the allele K versus allele E; OR = 1.66, 95% CI = 1.43–1.92, for the K allele carriers versus EE). Subgroup analysis supported the results in the Chinese populations and in the Caucasian populations. This meta-analysis suggests that the ICAM-1 gene K469E polymorphism is associated with CHD risk and the K allele is a more significant risk factor for developing CHD amongst Chinese and Caucasians populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many studies investigated the association between intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) gene rs5498 polymorphism and the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the results were inconsistent. METHODS To clarify convincing association, we conducted a comprehensive meta-analysis by searching in PubMed, Embase, Web of sciences, Sciences citation index, Google scholar, Cochrane Library, and the CNKI databases. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. RESULTS A total of 29 case-control studies with 5,494 cases and 6,364 controls for rs5498 polymorphism were included. The studied populations of this meta-analysis included Caucasians and Asians. Meta-analysis showed that rs5498 polymorphism was associated with the decreased risk of CAD. Stratification analysis of ethnicity found that rs5498 polymorphism decreased the risk of CAD among Caucasians, but not among Asians. Stratification by type of CAD revealed that ICAM-1 gene rs5498 polymorphism was also correlated with the decreased risk of myocardial infarction (MI). CONCLUSION In conclusion, this meta-analysis indicates that ICAM-1 gene rs5498 polymorphism decreases the risk of CAD.

Abstract
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a cardiovascular disease which is contributed by abnormal neovascularization. VEGFA (vascular endothelial growth factor A) and VEGFR2 (vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2) have been revealed to be involved in the pathological angiogenesis. This study was intended to confirm whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of VEGFA and VEGFR2 were associated with CHD in a Chinese population, considering pathological features and living habits of CHD patients.Peripheral blood samples were collected from 810 CHD patients and 805 healthy individuals. Six tag SNPs within VEGFA and VEGFR2 were obtained from HapMap Database. Genotyping of SNPs was performed using SNapShot method (Applied Biosystems, Foster, CA). Odd ratios (ORs) and their 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were calculated to evaluate the association between SNPs and CHD risk.Under the allelic model, 6 SNPs of VEGFA and VEGFR2 were remarkably associated with the susceptibility to CHD. Genotype CT of rs3025039, TT of rs2305948, and AA of rs1873077 were associated with a reduced risk of CHD when smoking, alcohol intake and diabetes were considered, while homozygote GG of rs1570360 might elevate the susceptibility to CHD (all P < 0.05) for patients who were addicted to smoking or those with hypertension. All of the combined effects of rs699947 (CC/CA) and rs2305948 (TT), rs3025039 (TT) and rs2305948 (TT), rs3025039 (CT) and rs1870377 (AA) had positive effects on the risk of CHD, respectively (all P < 0.05). By contrast, the synthetic effects of rs69947 (CA/AA) and rs1870377 (TA), rs699947 (CA) and rs7667298 (GG), rs699947 (AA) and rs7667298 (GG), rs1570360 (GG) and rs2305948 (TT), as well as rs1570360 (GG) and rs1870377 (AA) all exhibited adverse effects on the risk of CHD, respectively (all P < 0.05).Six polymorphisms in VEGFA and VEGFR2 may have substantial influence on the susceptibility to CHD in a Han Chinese population. Prospective cohort studies should be further designed to confirm the above conclusions.

Abstract
Present review article highlights various cardiovascular risk prediction biomarkers by incorporating both traditional risk factors to be used as diagnostic markers and recent technologically generated diagnostic and therapeutic markers. This paper explains traditional biomarkers such as lipid profile, glucose, and hormone level and physiological biomarkers based on measurement of levels of important biomolecules such as serum ferritin, triglyceride to HDLp (high density lipoproteins) ratio, lipophorin-cholesterol ratio, lipid-lipophorin ratio, LDL cholesterol level, HDLp and apolipoprotein levels, lipophorins and LTPs ratio, sphingolipids, Omega-3 Index, and ST2 level. In addition, immunohistochemical, oxidative stress, inflammatory, anatomical, imaging, genetic, and therapeutic biomarkers have been explained in detail with their investigational specifications. Many of these biomarkers, alone or in combination, can play important role in prediction of risks, its types, and status of morbidity. As emerging risks are found to be affiliated with minor and microlevel factors and its diagnosis at an earlier stage could find CVD, hence, there is an urgent need of new more authentic, appropriate, and reliable diagnostic and therapeutic markers to confirm disease well in time to start the clinical aid to the patients. Present review aims to discuss new emerging biomarkers that could facilitate more authentic and fast diagnosis of CVDs, HF (heart failures), and various lipid abnormalities and disorders in the future.
