Correlation between genetic polymorphisms within the MAPK1/HIF-1/HO-1 signaling pathway and risk or prognosis of perimenopausal coronary artery disease.

BACKGROUND: Mitogen-activated protein kinase-1 (MAPK1), as well as its downstream factors of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), have been documented to be involved in modulating development of coronary artery disease (CAD).

HYPOTHESIS: Genetic mutations within the MAPK1/HIF-1/HO-1 signaling pathway could alter the risk of perimenopausal CAD in Chinese patients.

METHODS: Peripheral blood samples were gathered from 589 CAD patients and 860 healthy controls, and 12 potential single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were obtained from HapMap database and previously published studies. Genotyping of SNPs was implemented with the TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assays. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were utilized to evaluate the correlations between SNPs and CAD risk.

RESULTS: Regarding MAPK1 , rs6928 (OR: 1.71, 95% CI: 1.47-1.98, P < 0.05), rs9340 (OR: 0.85, 95% CI: 0.73-0.99, P < 0.05), and rs11913721 (OR: 0.70, 95% CI: 0.52-0.95, P < 0.05) were remarkably associated with susceptibility to perimenopausal CAD. Of these, rs9340 and rs11913721 were also regarded as protective factors for perimenopausal CAD patients. Moreover, results of HIF-1 indicated noticeable correlations between combined SNPs of rs1087314 and rs2057482 and risk of perimenopausal CAD (OR: 1.24, 95% CI: 1.01-1.53, P < 0.05; and OR: 0.71, 95% CI: 0.55-0.91, P < 0.05, respectively). Nonetheless, rs2071746 in HO-1 was found to be only associated with perimenopausal CAD risk (OR: 0.67, 95% CI: 0.58-0.78, P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONS: The genetic mutations within MAPK1 (rs6928, rs9340, rs11913721), HIF-1 (rs1087314, rs2057482), and HO-1 (rs2071746) could alter susceptibility to perimenopausal CAD in this Chinese population.
