Abstract
Pulmonary surfactants play a crucial role in managing lung lipid metabolism, and dysregulation of this process is evident in various lung diseases. Alternations in lipid metabolism lead to pulmonary surfactant damage, resulting in hyperlipidemia in response to lung injury. Lung macrophages are responsible for recycling damaged lipid droplets to maintain lipid homeostasis. The inflammatory response triggered by external stimuli such as cigarette smoke, bleomycin, and bacteria can interfere with this process, resulting in the formation of lipid-laden macrophages (LLMs), also known as foamy macrophages. Recent studies have highlighted the potential significance of LLM formation in a range of pulmonary diseases. Furthermore, growing evidence suggests that LLMs are present in patients suffering from various pulmonary conditions. In this review, we summarize the essential metabolic and signaling pathways driving the LLM formation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pulmonary fibrosis, tuberculosis, and acute lung injury.

[-75 G/A Polymorphism of Apolipoprotein A1 Gene Promoter Region in Normal Pregnant Women and Patients With Gestational Diabetes Mellitus]. SICHUAN DA XUE XUE BAO. YI XUE BAN = JOURNAL OF SICHUAN UNIVERSITY. MEDICAL SCIENCE EDITION 2024; 55:125-131.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the -75 G/A single-nucleotide polymorphism in the promoter region of apolipoprotein A1 gene (apoA1) and its association with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in pregnant women and to provide references for the exploration in the molecular genetic basis of GDM. Methods A total of 626 GDM patients and 1022 normal pregnant women, ie, the controls, were included in the study. The genotyping of apoA1 -75 G/A polymorphism was performed by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis. Total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and glucose (Glu) were measured by enzymatic methods. Plasma insulin (INS) was measured by chemiluminescence immunoassay. The protein levels of apoA1 and apoB were measured by the turbidimetric immunoassay. Results Allele frequencies of G and A were 0.718 and 0.282 in the GDM group and 0.713 and 0.287 in the control group, respectively. Distribution of the genotype frequencies was found to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in both the GDM and control groups. There was no significant difference in the frequencies of alleles G and A and the genotypes of apoA1 -75 G/A polymorphism between the GDM and the control group (P>0.05). In the GDM group, the carriers with the genotype AA were associated with significantly higher levels of TC, HDL-C, and apoA1 than those with genotypes GG and GA did (all P<0.05). After the GDM patients were divided into obese and non-obese subgroups, the genotype-related apoA1 variation was observed only in obese patients, while the genotype-related TC and HDL-C variations were evident in non-obese patients (P<0.05). In the control group, carriers of genotypes AA and GA had higher systolic blood pressure (SBP) and HDL-C than the carriers of genotype GG did (all P<0.05). Carriers of genotypes AA had significantly lower Glu levels than carriers of genotypes GG and GA did (P<0.05). The control subjects were further divided into subgroups according to their body mass index (BMI). Analysis of the subgroups showed that AA carriers were associated with higher SBP levels in the obese control women only, while lower Glu levels were evident in both obese and non-obese control women. Conclusion These results suggest that -75 G/A polymorphism in the apoA1 gene is not associated with GDM. However, the genetic variation is closed associated with the plasma apoA1, HDL-C, and TC levels in GDM patients and plasma HDL-C, Glu, and SBP levels in the control subjects. The apoA1 variant-associated lipids and SBP variation is BMI dependent in both groups.

Relationship between the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) rs1801133 SNP and serum homocysteine levels of Zhuang hypertensive patients in the central region of Guangxi. Clin Hypertens 2023; 29:26. [PMID: 37777810 PMCID: PMC10543866 DOI: 10.1186/s40885-023-00250-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 10/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and serum homocysteine (Hcy) levels or H-type hypertension in different populations is inconsistent. This study aimed to explore the association between the MTHFR rs1801133 SNP and serum Hcy levels of Zhuang hypertensive patients in the central region of Guangxi. METHODS A total of 606 Zhuang inpatients with essential hypertension were recruited in our hospital from August 2016 to December 2018. The patients were divided into H-type hypertension (Hcy > 10 µmol/L, n = 528) and non-H-type hypertension (Hcy ≤ 10 µmol/L, n = 78) groups. At the same time, an age- and sex-matched group of 379 subjects with normal physical examination in our hospital were selected as the control group. Blood biochemical measurements and genotyping of the MTHFR rs1801133 SNP were performed. RESULTS The prevalence of H-type hypertension was 87.13%. The levels of serum Hcy in patients with hypertension were higher than those in control group (14.20 ± 5.78 μmol/L vs. 11.97 ± 5.39 μmol/L, P < 0.001), especially in patients with H-type hypertension (15.08 ± 5.65 μmol/L, P < 0.001). The frequencies of TT genotype (22.73%) and T allele (46.21%) in patients with H-type hypertension were significantly higher than those in control group (11.35% and 30.47%, respectively) and non-H-type hypertension group (10.26% and 28.85%, respectively; P < 0.001 for all). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that serum Hcy levels were significantly correlated with creatinine, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, endogenous creatinine clearance rate, and the MTHFR rs1801133 genotypes in control group, while serum Hcy levels were significantly correlated with creatinine, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, endogenous creatinine clearance rate, glycosylated hemoglobin, and the MTHFR rs1801133 genotypes in H-type hypertension group (P < 0.05-0.001). Serum Hcy levels in the T allele carriers were higher than those in the T allele noncarriers in both H-type hypertension and control groups. CONCLUSIONS There was closely related between the MTHFR rs1801133 SNP and serum Hcy levels in Zhuang patients with H-type hypertension in the central region of Guangxi. The MTHFR SNP may be an important reason for the increase of serum Hcy levels in Zhuang patients with H-type hypertension in this region.

Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol 2023; 287:20-28. [PMID: 37270990 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejogrb.2023.05.033] [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: 10/17/2022] [Revised: 05/13/2023] [Accepted: 05/25/2023] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVES Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is the most common metabolic disorder in pregnancy, and it often leads to adverse pregnancy outcomes and seriously harms the health of mothers and infants. ATP-binding cassette transporter G1 (ABCG1) plays critical roles in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) metabolism and reverse cholesterol transport. This study was designed to explore the relevance of the ABCG1 polymorphisms in the atherometabolic risk in GDM. STUDY DESIGN The case-control population consists of 1504 subjects. The rs2234715 and rs57137919 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped using PCR and DNA sequencing, and clinical and metabolic parameters were determined. RESULTS The genotype distributions of the two SNPs showed no difference between the GDM patient and control groups. However, the rs57137919 polymorphism was associated with total cholesterol (TC), and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) levels in patients with GDM. Moreover, subgroup analysis showed that this polymorphism was associated with ApoA1 and DBP levels in overweight/obese patients with GDM, while it was associated with TC, and gestational weight gain (GWG) in non-obese patients with GDM. Meanwhile, the rs2234715 polymorphism was found to be associated with neonatal birth height in non-obese patients with GDM. CONCLUSIONS The two polymorphisms in the ABCG1 have an influence on atherometabolic traits, GWG, and fetal growth in GDM, depending on the BMI of the patients.

Differential distribution of gene polymorphisms associated with hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, and hypoalphalipoproteinemia among Native American and Mestizo Mexicans. World J Hepatol 2022; 14:1408-1420. [PMID: 36158920 PMCID: PMC9376766 DOI: 10.4254/wjh.v14.i7.1408] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2022] [Revised: 06/20/2022] [Accepted: 07/06/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dyslipidemias are metabolic abnormalities associated with chronic diseases caused by genetic and environmental factors. The Mexican population displays regional differences according to ethnicity with an impact on the type of dyslipidemia.
AIM To define the main dyslipidemias, the frequency of lipid-related risk alleles, and their association with hyperlipidemic states among different ethnic groups in West Mexico.
METHODS In a retrospective study, 1324 adults were selected to compare dyslipidemias and lipid-related gene polymorphisms. Demographic, clinical, and laboratory data were collected. A subgroup of 196 normal weight subjects without impaired glucose was selected for the association analyses. Genotyping was determined by allelic discrimination assay.
RESULTS Hypercholesterolemia was the most prevalent dyslipidemia (42.3%). The frequency of the risk alleles associated with hypoalphalipoproteinemia (ABCA1) and hypercholesterolemia (APOE, LDLR) was higher in the Native Americans (P = 0.047). In contrast, the Mestizos with European ancestry showed a higher frequency of the risk alleles for hypertriglyceridemia (APOE2, MTTP) (P = 0.045). In normal weight Mestizo subjects, the APOB TT and LDLR GG genotypes were associated risk factors for hypercholesterolemia (OR = 5.33, 95%CI: 1.537-18.502, P = 0.008 and OR = 3.90, 95%CI: 1.042-14.583, P = 0.043, respectively), and displayed an increase in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels (APOB: β = 40.39, 95%CI: 14.415-66.366, P = 0.004; LDLR: β = 20.77, 95%CI: 5.763-35.784, P = 0.007).
CONCLUSION Gene polymorphisms and dyslipidemias showed a differential distribution. Regional primary health care strategies are required to mitigate their prevalence considering the genetic and environmental features which could have important implications for personalized medicine within the new era of precision medicine.

Effects of USF1 SNPs and SNP–Environment Interactions on Serum Lipid Profiles and the Risk of Early-Onset Coronary Artery Disease in the Chinese Population. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:882728. [PMID: 35783856 PMCID: PMC9240353 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.882728] [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: 02/25/2022] [Accepted: 05/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BackgroundUpstream transcription factor 1 (USF1) single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are significantly associated with serum lipid levels in several different ethnic groups or populations, but their association with lipid levels and the risk of early-onset coronary artery disease (EOCAD) has not been reported in Han populations of southern China.MethodsSix USF1 SNPs (rs3737787, rs2774276, rs2516839, rs2516838, rs1556259, and rs2516837) were genotyped by next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques in 686 control subjects and 728 patients with EOCAD.ResultsThe genotypic and allelic frequencies of the USF1 rs3737787 SNP were significantly different between the control and EOCAD groups. The subgroup analysis identified that the rs3737787T allele was related to a decreased risk of EOCAD, whereas the rs3737787C–rs2774276G–rs2516839A and rs3737787C–rs2774276G–rs2516839G haplotypes were related to an increased risk of EOCAD in men, and the rs3737787C–rs2774276G–rs2516839A and rs3737787T–rs2774276C–rs2516839A haplotypes were correlated with an increased risk of EOCAD in women (p < 0.05–0.01). Male rs3737787T allele carriers had lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), total cholesterol (TC), and triglyceride (TG) concentrations than the rs3737787T allele non-carriers (p < 0.01). The interactions of rs3737787 with alcohol consumption and rs2516839 with smoking affected serum TC and LDL-C levels in men, whereas the interaction of rs3737787 with alcohol consumption affected serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and the rs2516839-smoking interaction affected serum TC levels in women (pI < 0.001). The expression levels of the USF1 mRNA, interleukin 1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interleukin 6 (IL-6) were significantly lower in controls than in patients with EOCAD, and rs3737787T allele carriers displayed lower IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6, and USF1 mRNA expression levels than the rs3737787T allele non-carriers. In addition, IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 expression levels were significantly positively correlated with USF1 mRNA levels (p < 0.01).ConclusionSex-specific correlations were identified between the USF1 rs3737787T allele with blood lipid levels and the risk of EOCAD. The USF1 rs3737787T allele affects the risk of EOCAD by modulating serum lipid levels and the expression of inflammatory factors, including IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6.

Abstract
Background: The current study aimed to investigate the effects of synaptotagmin-like 3 (SYTL3) and solute carrier family 22 member 3 (SLC22A3) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and gene-environment (G × E) interactions on blood lipid levels as well as the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) and ischaemic stroke (IS) in the Southern Chinese Han population. Methods: The genetic makeup of 6 SYTL3-SLC22A3 SNPs in 2269 unrelated participants (controls, 755; CAD, 758 and IS, 756) of Chinese Han ethnicity was detected by the next-generation sequencing techniques. Results: The allele and genotype frequencies of the SYTL3 rs2129209 and SLC22A3 rs539298 SNPs were significantly different between the case and control groups. The SLC22A3 rs539298 SNP was correlated with total cholesterol (TC) levels in controls, the rs539298G allele carriers maintained lower TC levels than the rs539298G allele non-carriers. At the same time, the SLC22A3 rs539298 SNP interacted with alcohol consumption reduced the risk of CAD and IS. The SYTL3-SLC22A3 A-C-A-A-A-A, G-T-C-G-C-A and A-T-A-A-C-A haplotypes increased and the A-C-A-A-C-G haplotype reduced the risk of CAD, whereas the SYTL3-SLC22A3 A-C-A-A-A-A, G-T-C-G-A-G and A-T-A-A-C-A haplotypes increased and the A-C-A-A-A-G and A-C-A-A-C-G haplotypes reduced the risk of IS. In addition, several SNPs interacted with alcohol consumption, body mass index ≥ 24 kg/m2 and cigarette smoking to affect serum lipid parameters such as triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, TC, and apolipoprotein A1 levels. Conclusions: Several SYTL3-SLC22A3 variants, especially the rs539298 SNP, several haplotypes, and G × E interactions, were related to blood lipid parameters and the risk of CAD and IS in the Southern Chinese Han population.

A Common R219K Variant of ATP-Binding Cassette Transporter A1 Gene Alters Atherometabolic Traits in Pregnant Women With Gestational Diabetes Mellitus. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2021; 12:782453. [PMID: 34975757 PMCID: PMC8718706 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2021.782453] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2021] [Accepted: 11/30/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) has important roles in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) metabolism and reverse cholesterol transport, and is implicated in lipid-related disorders. Genetic variants are involved in the pathogenesis of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). The objective of this study was to investigate the association of rs2230806 (R219K), a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the lipid-related gene, with the risk of GDM and related traits. METHODS The SNP, rs2230806, was genotyped, and clinical and metabolic parameters were determined in 660 GDM patients and 1,097 control subjects. Genetic associations with related traits were also analyzed. RESULTS The genotype distributions were similar in GDM patients and normal controls. However, significant differences in the variables examined in the study subjects were noted across the three genotypes. The genotype at the rs2230806 polymorphism was significantly associated with HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and atherogenic index (AI) values in GDM patients and total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels in control subjects. Subgroup analysis showed that the polymorphism was associated with diastolic blood pressure, in addition to HDL-C levels and AI, in overweight/obese GDM patients, while it was associated with TC levels, AI, pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI), and BMI at delivery in non-obese GDM patients. In addition, this polymorphism was associated with TC, LDL-C, and apoB levels in overweight/obese control subjects. CONCLUSIONS The rs2230806 polymorphism in the ABCA1 gene was associated with variations in atherometabolic traits in GDM patients, with characteristics of BMI dependency, but not with GDM. Our findings highlight a link between related phenotypes in women with GDM and genetic factors.

PCSK9: Associated with cardiac diseases and their risk factors? Arch Biochem Biophys 2020; 704:108717. [PMID: 33307067 DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2020.108717] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2020] [Revised: 11/27/2020] [Accepted: 12/02/2020] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
PCSK9 plays a critical role in cholesterol metabolism via the PCSK9-LDLR axis. Liver-derived, circulating PCSK9 has become a novel drug target in lipid-lowering therapy. Accumulative evidence supports the possible association between PCSK9 and cardiac diseases and their risk factors. PCSK9 exerts various effects in the heart independently of LDL-cholesterol regulation. Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) induces local and systemic inflammation and reactive oxygen species generation, resulting in increased PCSK9 expression in hepatocytes and cardiomyocytes. PCSK9 upregulation promotes excessive autophagy and apoptosis in cardiomyocytes, thereby contributing to cardiac insufficiency. PCSK9 might also participate in the pathophysiology of heart failure by regulating fatty acid metabolism and cardiomyocyte contractility. It also promotes platelet activation and coagulation in patients with atrial fibrillation. PCSK9 is an independent predictor of aortic valve calcification and accelerates calcific aortic valve disease by regulating lipoprotein(a) catabolism. Accordingly, the use of PCSK9 inhibitors significantly reduced infarct sizes and arrhythmia and improves cardiac contractile function in a rat model of AMI. Circulating PCSK9 levels are positively correlated with age, diabetes mellitus, obesity, and hypertension. Here, we reviewed recent clinical and experimental studies exploring the association between PCSK9, cardiac diseases, and their related risk factors and aiming to identify possible underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Scavenger receptor class B, type I (SR-BI), involved in reverse cholesterol pathway, is a multilipoprotein receptor and capable of binding HDL, LDL and VLDL. SR-BI may contribute to the development of hypertension due to accumulation of cholesterol in the vessel wall via transporting lipoproteins. Therefore, it was aimed to investigate the relationship between SR-BI rs5888 and rs4238001 variants in the patient with hypertension.
Materials and methods
Seventy three subjects diagnosed with hypertension and 76 healthy subjects constituted the patient and control group, respectively. Genomic DNA was isolated from peripheral blood samples and a real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction protocol was performed to detect variations of rs5888 and rs4238001. The results were analyzed with the SPSS 22 program and p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results and discussion
SR-BI rs4238001 variation did not show significant difference between patient and control group (p > 0.05). In the SR-BI rs5888 variation; normal homozygous CC and heterozygous CT carriers had an average 2-fold lower risk of hypertension than those carrying the TT genotype (p < 0.05).
Conclusion
SR-BI rs5888 TT variant may increase hypertension risk by reducing lipid transport to the liver from the vessel wall.

ACAT-1 gene rs1044925 SNP and its relation with different clinical forms of chronic Chagas disease. Parasitol Res 2019; 118:2343-2351. [PMID: 31236660 DOI: 10.1007/s00436-019-06377-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2019] [Accepted: 06/10/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Chagas disease, caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi), although discovered more than a century ago, is still a not very well-elucidated aspect. Individuals in the chronic phase of the disease may present asymptomatic clinical form or symptomatologies related to the cardiac, digestive systems, or both (mixed clinical form). SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) have been identified as important markers because they constitute about 90% of the variation in the human genome. One of them is localized to the ACAT-1 gene (cholesterol acyltransferase 1) (rs1044925) and has been linked to lipid disorders. Some studies have suggested the interaction between T. cruzi and the lipid metabolism of the host. Therefore, the objective of the present study was to evaluate the association between the ACAT-1 gene rs1044925 SNP in relation to clinical manifestations in patients with chronic Chagas disease. A total of 135 individuals with chronic Chagas disease, 86 (63.7%) asymptomatic individuals and 49 (36.3%) symptomatic patients (22 with cardiac clinical form, 18 with digestive form and 9 with mixed form) participated in the study. To evaluate the polymorphism, the PCR-RFLP technique were used. There was a significant difference and a higher frequency of AA and AC genotypes (p = 0.047 and p = 0.016, respectively) of the ACAT-1 gene in asymptomatic chagasic individuals. The result suggests a protective character of the AA and AC genotypes of the rs1044925 SNP in relation to the presence of symptomatic clinical manifestations of the disease in chronic chagasic individuals.

Abstract
This study aimed to assess the association of the tribbles pseudokinase 1 (TRIB1) and transcriptional repressor GATA binding 1 (TRPS1) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the gene-gene (G × G) and gene-environment (G × E) interactions with serum lipid levels, the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) and ischemic stroke (IS) in the Guangxi Han population. Genotyping of the rs2954029, rs2980880, rs10808546, rs231150, rs2737229 and rs10505248 SNPs was performed in 625 controls and 1146 unrelated patients (CHD, 593 and IS, 553). The genotypic and allelic frequencies of some SNPs were different between controls and patients (CHD, rs2954029 and rs231150; IS, rs2954029 and rs2980880; P < 0.05-0.01). Two SNPs were associated with increased risk of CHD (rs2954029 and rs231150) and IS (rs2954029) in different genetic models. Several SNPs in controls were associated with total cholesterol (rs2954029, rs2980880 and rs2737229), triglyceride (rs2954029 and rs10808546), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (rs2954029), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (rs2980880 and rs231150) and apolipoprotein A1 (rs2737229) levels. The rs2954029TA/AA-age (>60 year) interaction increased the risk of CHD, whereas the rs10808546CT/TT-drinking interaction decreased the risk of IS. The rs2954029A-rs2980880C-rs10808546C haplotype was associated with increased risk of CHD and IS. The rs2954029A-rs2980880T-rs10808546C haplotype was associated with increased risk of CHD. The rs2954029-rs231150 interactions had an increased risk of both CHD and IS. These results suggest that several TRIB1 and TRPS1 SNPs were associated with dyslipidemia and increased risk of CHD and IS in our study population. The G × G and G × E interactions on serum lipid levels, and the risk of CHD and IS were also observed.

Abstract
Background: The T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain 4 gene (TIMD4) rs6882076 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) has been associated with serum total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglycerides (TG) levels, but the results are inconsistent. Moreover, little is known about such association in Chinese populations. The aim of this study was to detect the association of the TIMD4 rs6882076 SNP and serum lipid levels and the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) and ischemic stroke (IS) in a Southern Chinese Han population. Methods: Genotypes of the TIMD4 rs6882076 SNP in 1765 unrelated subjects (CHD, 581; IS, 559 and healthy controls, 625) were determined by the Snapshot Technology. Results: The genotypic and allelic frequencies of the TIMD4 rs6882076 SNP were different between the CHD/IS patients and controls (P < 0.05 for all). The subjects with CT/TT genotypes were associated with decreased risk of CHD (P = 0.014 for CT/TT vs. CC genotypes, P = 0.010 for T vs. C alleles) and IS (P = 0.003 for CT/TT vs. CC genotypes; P = 0.016 for T vs. C alleles). The T allele carriers in healthy controls were also associated with decreased levels of serum TG. Conclusions: The results of the present study suggest that the TIMD4 rs6882076 SNP is associated with decreased risk of CHD and IS in our study population. It is likely to decrease the CHD and IS risk by reducing serum TG levels.

Abstract
Little is known about the association of the TIMD4 (T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain 4 gene)-HAVCR1 (hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 1) variants and lipid metabolism, the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) and ischemic stroke (IS). The present study aimed to determine the TIMD4-HAVCR1 variants, their haplotypes and gene–environment interactions on serum lipid levels, the risk of CHD and IS, and the lipid-lowering efficacy of atorvastatin in a southern Chinese Han population. Genotypes of three variants in 622 controls, 579 CHD, and 546 IS patients were determined by the Snapshot technology. Atorvastatin calcium tablet (20 mg/day) was given in 724 hyperlipidemic patients for 8 weeks after genotyping. The rs12522248 genotypic and allelic frequencies were different between controls and patients, and were associated with the risk of CHD and IS. The rs1501908G-rs12522248T-rs2036402T haplotype was associated with an increased risk of CHD; the G-C-T haplotype was associated with lower risk of CHD; and the C-C-C haplotype was associated with an increased risk of IS. Variants and their haplotypes in controls were associated with triglyceride (rs1501908), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C, rs1501908, G-T-T), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C, rs12522248, C-C-C) and the ratio of total cholesterol (TC) to HDL-C (C-C-C). Interactions of rs1501908- and rs2036402-alcohol (HDL-C); rs1501908- and rs12522248-high body mass index (hBMI, ≥24 kg/m2; TC); and TIMD4-HAVCR1 variants-atorvastatin on several lipid parameters were detected. Interactions of rs12522248TC/CC-hBMI, G-T-T-, and C-C-C-smoking on the risk of CHD; and C-C-C-smoking, C-C-C-, and G-C-T-hBMI on the risk of IS were also observed. These findings suggest that the TIMD4-HAVCR1 variants may be the genetic risk factors for CHD and IS.

Abstract
Aim This study aimed to detect the association of the mevalonate kinase (MVK) and methylmalonic aciduria (cobalamin deficiency) cblB type (MMAB) gene variants, their haplotypes, and gene-environment (G×E) interactions on serum lipid levels and the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) and ischemic stroke (IS) in a Chinese Han population. Methods Genotyping of the rs3759387, rs7134594, rs877710 and rs9593 SNPs in 846 CHD and 869 IS patients and 847 healthy controls was performed by PCR-RFLP and Sanger sequencing. Logistic regression and factor regression were used to investigate the association of 4 MVK-MMAB SNPs and serum lipid levels and the risk of CHD and IS. Results The genotypic and allelic frequencies of the rs3759387 and rs7134594 SNPs differed between controls and patients (P < 0.0125-0.001). The rs3759387 SNP was associated with the risk of CHD and IS in different genetic models. The A-T-G-A and C-T-C-T haplotypes were associated with increased risk of CHD. The haplotype of A-T-G-A was associated with an increased risk of IS, whereas the C-T-G-A haplotype was associated with a decreased risk of IS. Interactions of C-T-C-T-smoking or C-T-C-T-age on the risk of CHD, and A-T-G-A-hypertension or A-T-G-A-age on the risk of IS were also observed. The subjects with the rs3759387AA genotype in controls had lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels than did the subjects with AC/CC genotypes. Several SNPs interacted with alcohol consumption and cigarette smoking to increase serum HDL-C and apolipoprotein A1 levels, but they interacted with body mass index ≥ 24 kg/m2 to decrease serum HDL-C and apolipoprotein A1 levels. Conclusion Several MVK-MMAB variants, especially the rs3759387 SNP, 4 main haplotypes, and G×E interactions were associated with serum lipid levels and the risk of CHD and IS in a Chinese Han population.

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2016; 13:ijerph13060601. [PMID: 27322299 PMCID: PMC4924058 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph13060601] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2016] [Revised: 06/13/2016] [Accepted: 06/14/2016] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
Hypertension is considered to be the result of genes, environment, and their interactions. Among them age, sex, tobacco use, alcohol consumption, and being overweight/obesity are well documented environmental determinants, and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T polymorphism is nominated as a potential genetic candidate. However, the synergistic effect of the MTHFR C677T polymorphism with these environmental factors on the risk of hypertension has received little attention. The aim of this study was to explore the associations of the MTHFR C677T polymorphism, environmental factors, and their interactions with hypertension predisposition in a Northern Chinese Han population. A total of 708 participants were enrolled in the study. The genotypes of the MTHFR C677T were determined by a TaqMan assay. We found that participants of an older age, being overweight/obesity, with a smoking habit, drinking habit, or carrying the 677T allele were at an increased risk of hypertension. Additionally, there existed marginally significant interactions of the polymorphism with age and overweight/obesity. However, future large, well-designed studies in Chinese and other populations, as well as mechanistic studies, are still needed to validate our findings, especially considering that the interactions observed in our study were only marginally significant.

HIV and Hepatitis C-Coinfected Patients Have Lower Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Despite Higher Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin Kexin 9 (PCSK9): An Apparent "PCSK9-Lipid Paradox". J Am Heart Assoc 2016; 5:JAHA.115.002683.

Abstract
Background Proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors reduce low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C) and improve outcomes in the general population. HIV‐infected individuals are at increased risk for cardiovascular events and have high rates of dyslipidemia and hepatitis C virus (HCV) coinfection, making PCSK9 inhibition a potentially attractive therapy. Methods and Results We studied 567 participants from a clinic‐based cohort to compare PCSK9 levels in patients with HIV/HCV coinfection (n=110) with those with HIV infection alone (n=385) and with uninfected controls (n=72). The mean age was 49 years, and the median LDL‐C level was 100 mg/dL (IQR 77–124 mg/dL); 21% were taking statins. The 3 groups had similar rates of traditional risk factors. Total cholesterol, LDL‐C, and high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were lower in coinfected patients compared with controls (P<0.001). PCSK9 was 21% higher in HIV/HCV‐coinfected patients versus controls (95% CI 9–34%, P<0.001) and 11% higher in coinfected individuals versus those with HIV infection alone (95% CI 3–20%, P=0.008). After adjustment for cardiovascular risk factors, HIV/HCV coinfection remained significantly associated with 20% higher PCSK9 levels versus controls (95% CI 8–33%, P=0.001). Interleukin‐6 levels increased in a stepwise fashion from controls (lowest) to HIV‐infected to HIV/HCV‐coinfected individuals (highest) and correlated with PCSK9 (r=0.11, P=0.018). Conclusions Despite having lower LDL‐C, circulating PCSK9 levels were increased in patients coinfected with HIV and HCV in parallel with elevations in the inflammatory, proatherogenic cytokine interleukin‐6. Clinical trials should be conducted to determine the efficacy of targeted PCSK9 inhibition in the setting of HIV/HCV coinfection.

Abstract
This study aimed to detect the association of the MADD-FOLH1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and their haplotypes with the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) and ischemic stroke (IS) in a Chinese Han population. Six SNPs of rs7395662, rs326214, rs326217, rs1051006, rs3736101, and rs7120118 were genotyped in 584 CHD and 555 IS patients, and 596 healthy controls. The genotypic and allelic frequencies of the rs7395662 SNP were different between controls and patients, and the genotypes of the rs7395662 SNP were associated with the risk of CHD and IS in different genetic models. Six main haplotypes among the rs1051006, rs326214, rs326217, rs3736101, and rs7120118 SNPs were detected in our study population, the haplotypes of G-G-T-G-C and G-A-T-G-T were associated with an increased risk of CHD and IS, respectively. The subjects with rs7395662GG genotype in controls had higher triglyceride (TG) and lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels than the subjects with AA/AG genotypes. Several SNPs interacted with alcohol consumption to influence serum TG (rs326214, rs326217, and rs7120118) and HDL-C (rs7395662) levels. The SNP of rs3736101 interacted with cigarette smoking to modify serum HDL-C levels. The SNP of rs1051006 interacted with body mass index ≥24 kg/m2 to modulate serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. The interactions of several haplotypes and alcohol consumption on the risk of CHD and IS were also observed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE *These authors contributed equally to this work. At present, they work at the Hezhou People's Hospital, Hezhou, China.To retrospectively compare differences in the prevalence of hypertension and associated risk factors between the Chinese Jing and Mulao populations. METHODS Subjects of Jing and Mulao ethnicities were surveyed using stratified randomized sampling. Demography, diet and lifestyle data were collected using standardized questionnaires. Several anthropometric parameters, blood pressure (BP) levels and serum lipid concentrations were obtained. RESULTS Data from 915 Jing and 911 Mulao subjects aged ≥ 35 years were included. Diastolic BP levels and prevalence of hypertension were lower, but prevalence of isolated systolic hypertension was higher, in the Jing compared with the Mulao population. Prevalence of hypertension in the age 60-69 years, body mass index (BMI) > 24 kg/m(2), and smoker subgroups was lower in the Jing compared with the Mulao populations. Prevalence of hypertension correlated with age, cigarette smoking, triglyceride level, waist circumference, sodium intake and total dietary fibre in the Jing population; hypertension prevalence also correlated with age, triglyceride level, BMI, total fat, sodium intake and total dietary fibre in the Mulao population (unconditional logistic regression analyses). CONCLUSIONS Prevalence of hypertension and associated risk factors were different between the two ethnic minorities, which might result from the combined effects of differences in their geographic, dietary, lifestyle, and genetic backgrounds.

Abstract
This study aimed to detect the interactions of several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and alcohol consumption on blood pressure levels. Genotypes of 10 SNPs in the ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA-1), acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase-1 (ACAT-1), low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), hepatic lipase gene (LIPC), endothelial lipase gene (LIPG), methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), the E3 ubiquitin ligase myosin regulatory light chain-interacting protein (MYLIP), proprotein convertase subtilisin-like kexin type 9 (PCSK9), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta (PPARD), and Scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SCARB1) genes were determined in 616 nondrinkers and 608 drinkers. The genotypic frequencies of LDLR rs5925, LIPC rs2070895, MTHFR rs1801133, and MYLIP rs3757354 SNPs were significantly different between nondrinkers and drinkers. The levels of systolic blood pressure (ABCA-1 rs2066715 and rs2070895), diastolic blood pressure (rs2070895), and pulse pressure (PP) (rs2066715, ACAT-1 rs1044925, and rs1801133) in nondrinkers, and systolic blood pressure (rs1044925 and SCARB1 rs5888), diastolic blood pressure (rs1044925 and LIPG rs2000813), and PP (PCSK9 rs505151 and rs5888) in drinkers were different among the genotypes (P < 0.005-0.001). The interactions of several SNPs and alcohol consumption on systolic blood pressure (rs2066715, rs1044925, rs5925, rs2070895, rs1801133, rs3757354, PPARD rs2016520, and rs5888), diastolic blood pressure (rs2066715, rs1044925, rs5925, rs2000813, rs3757354, and rs2016520), and PP (rs1044925, rs2070895, rs1801133, rs3757354, rs505151, and rs5888) were observed (P < 0.005-0.001). The differences in blood pressure levels between the nondrinkers and drinkers might be partially attributed to the interactions of these SNPs and alcohol consumption.

Abstract
The interactions between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and high body mass index (BMI) on serum lipid profiles are limited. This study was undertaken to detect the interactions of 10 SNPs and high BMI on serum lipid traits in an isolated population. A total of 978 normal BMI (< 24 kg/m2) and 751 high BMI (≥ 24 kg/m2) subjects of Bai Ku Yao were randomly selected from our previous stratified randomized cluster samples. Genotypes of rs2066715, rs1044925, low density lipoprotein receptor (LDL-R) Ava||, rs2070895, rs2000813, rs1801133, rs3757354, rs505151, rs2016520, and rs5888 SNPs were determined by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism combined with gel electrophoresis, and then confirmed by direct sequencing. The interactions were detected by factorial design covariance analysis. The genotypic and allelic frequencies of rs2070895 and rs505151 were different between normal and high BMI subjects, the genotypic frequency of rs2000813 and allelic frequency of rs3757354 were also different between normal and high BMI subjects (P < 0.01). The levels of total cholesterol (TC), apolipoprotein (Apo) A1 (rs2066715); TC, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), ApoA1, ApoB, and ApoA1/ApoB (rs2070895); triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and ApoA1 (rs2000813); TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, ApoA1, and ApoB (rs1801133); HDL-C and ApoA1 (rs3757354) in normal BMI subjects were different among the genotypes (P < 0.01). The levels of LDL-C, ApoB, and ApoA1/ApoB (rs2066715); HDL-C, ApoA1, ApoB, and ApoA1/ApoB (rs2070895); TC, HDL-C, ApoA1, and ApoB (rs2000813); TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, ApoA1, and ApoB (rs1801133); TC, TG, and ApoB (rs3757354); TG (rs505151); TG and ApoA1 and ApoB (rs2016520); and TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, ApoA1, and ApoB (rs5888) in high BMI subjects were also different among the genotypes (P < 0.01). The SNPs of rs2066715 (LDL-C and ApoA1/ApoB); rs2070895 (TC, LDL-C, ApoA1, and ApoB); rs2000813 (ApoB); rs1801133 (TC, TG, and LDL-C); rs3757354 (TC and TG); rs505151 (TG, HDL-C, ApoB, and ApoA1/ApoB); rs2016520 (TG and ApoA1/ApoB); and rs5888 (TG, ApoA1, and ApoB) interacted with high BMI to influence serum lipid levels (P < 0.01). The differences in serum lipid levels between normal and high BMI subjects might partly result from different interactions of several SNPs and high BMI.

Abstract
Cigarette smoke is an aerosol that contains >4,000 chemicals, including nicotine, carbon monoxide, acrolein, and oxidant compounds. Exposure to cigarette smoke induces multiple pathological effects in the endothelium, several of which are the result of oxidative stress initiated by reactive oxygen species, reactive nitrogen species, and other oxidant constituents of cigarette smoke. Cigarette-smoke exposure interferes adversely with the control of all stages of plaque formation and development and pathological thrombus formation. The reactive oxygen species in cigarette smoke contribute to oxidative stress, upregulation of inflammatory cytokines, and endothelial dysfunction, by reducing the bioavailability of nitric oxide. Plaque formation and the development of vulnerable plaques also result from exposure to cigarette smoke via the enhancement of inflammatory processes and the activation of matrix metalloproteases. Moreover, exposure to cigarette smoke results in platelet activation, stimulation of the coagulation cascade, and impairment of anticoagulative fibrinolysis. Many cigarette-smoke-mediated prothrombotic changes are quickly reversible upon smoking cessation. Public health efforts should urgently promote our understanding of current cigarette-smoke-induced cardiovascular pathology to encourage individuals to reduce their exposure to cigarette smoke and, therefore, the detrimental consequences of associated atherothrombotic disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Our previous studies have showed that the rs5888 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in Scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SCARB1) gene is associated with serum lipid levels in the general Chinese populations. The present study was undertaken to detect the associations between rs5888 SNP and the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) and ischemic stroke (IS). METHODS A total of 1,716 unrelated subjects (CAD, 601; IS, 533; and healthy controls, 582) were included in this study. Genotyping of the rs5888 SNP were determined by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism. RESULTS The genotypic frequencies of SCARB1 rs5888 SNP were different between CAD patients and controls, the subjects with TT genotype had high risk of CAD (OR = 1.76, P = 0.038 for TT vs. CC; and OR = 1.75, P = 0.036 for TT vs. CC/CT). There was no significant association between genotypes and the risk of IS. Further analysis showed that the subjects with TT genotype in the total population had lower levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol than the subjects with CC/CT genotypes (P < 0.05), the subjects with TT genotype in controls but not in CAD or IS patients had higher levels of serum LDL-C and ApoB than those with CC genotype (P < 0.05 for each). CONCLUSIONS The present study suggests that the SCARB1 rs5888 SNP influences serum lipid levels, and is associated with the risk of CAD.

Abstract
Little is known about the interactions of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and overweight/obesity on blood pressure levels. The present study was undertaken to detect 10 lipid-related gene SNPs and their interactions with overweight/obesity on blood pressure levels. Genotyping of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA-1) V825I, acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase-1 (ACAT-1) rs1044925, low density lipoprotein receptor (LDL-R) AvaII hepatic lipase gene (LIPC) −250G > A, endothelial lipase gene (LIPG) 584C > T, methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) 677C > T, the E3 ubiquitin ligase myosin regulatory light chain-interacting protein (MYLIP) rs3757354, proprotein convertase subtilisin-like kexin type 9 (PCSK9) E670G, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta (PPARD) +294T > C, and Scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SCARB1) rs5888 was performed in 978 normal weight and 751 overweight/obese subjects. The interactions were detected by factorial regression analysis. The genotypes of ACAT-1 AC, LIPC GA and AA, and SCARB1 TT; LDL-R A-A- and LIPC GA; and SCARB1 TT were interacted with overweight/obesity to increase systolic, diastolic blood pressure (SBP, DBP) and pulse pressure (PP) levels; respectively. The genotypes of ACAT-1 CC; ACAT-1 AA and CC were interacted with overweight/obesity to decrease SBP, PP levels (p < 0.01–0.001); respectively. The differences in blood pressure levels between normal weight and overweight/obese subjects might partly result from different interactions of several SNPs and overweight/obesity.
