[Polymorphisms in Genes of Cytokines and Matrix Metalloproteinases Associated With Ischemic Heart Disease in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes].

Kardiologiia 2017 August
OBJECTIVE: To examine associations between ischemic heart disease (IHD) and polymorphisms in cytokine genes (IL-1B, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, TNFA, VEGF) and matrix metalloproteinase genes (MMP2, MMP3, MMP9) in patients with type 2 diabetes.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: We studied 232 Caucasian diabetic subjects (33 men and 199 women aged 50-70 years). In 93 patients IHD was verified by treadmill test and/or coronary angiography (86 subjects with stable angina, 19 with previous myocardial infarction). Thirteen polymorphisms localized in the promoters of IL-1B (rs1143627), IL-4 (rs2243250), IL-6 (rs1800795), IL-10 (rs1800872, rs1800896), TNFA (rs361525, rs1800629, rs1800630), VEGF (rs699947, rs3025039), MMP2 (rs243865), MMP3 (rs3025058) and MMP9 (rs3918242) were investigated.

RESULTS: Prevalence of G-allele and GG-genotype at -308 position of TNFA (rs1800629), as well as C-allele and CC-genotype at position +936 of VEGF (rs3025039) was higher in patients with IHD as compared to patients without IHD (OR=2.0, OR=2.2, OR=2.1, OR=2.4, respectively, all p=0.02). In logistic regression analysis, TNFA -308 A/G and VEGF +936 C/T polymorphisms showed associations with IHD (both p=0.009). These polymorphisms along with age, body mass index, duration of diabetes, low density and high density lipoprotein cholesterol were associated with IHD in multivariate models (p=0.0002 and p=0.00008, respectively). Nine combinations of TNFA -308 GG-genotype and variants of other genes demonstrated associations with IHD (p≤0.002).

CONCLUSION: The polymorphisms in promoter regions of TNFA (rs1800629) and VEGF (rs3025039) are associated with IHD in patients with type 2 diabetes.
