Association of the rs1870634 Variant in Long Intergenic Non-protein Coding RNA 841 with Coronary Artery Disease: A GWAS-Replication Study in an Iranian Population.
Biochemical Genetics 2018 October
Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified a list of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with coronary artery disease (CAD). Replication of GWAS findings in different population corroborated the observed association in the parent GWAS. In this study, we aimed to replicate the association of rs1870634, a GWAS identified SNP, to CAD in an Iranian population. The study population consisted of 267 subjects undergoing coronary angiography coronary angiography including 155 CAD patients and 112 non-CAD age- and gender-matched controls. The genotype determination of rs1870634 SNP performed using high-resolution melting analysis (HRM) technique. Our results revealed that the GG genotype frequency was significantly higher in CAD patients compared with controls (P = 0.03). The results of binary logistic regression suggested that this genotype was significantly associated with CAD risk adjustment for age, BMI, sex, TC, and LDL-C lipid levels (OR of 2.78, 95% CI (1.10-7.01), P = 0.03). Moreover, our results showed that the GG+TG genotypes were 2.52 times more likely to develop CAD (95% CI 1.05-6.03) than TT genotype carriers after adjusting for age, sex, and lipid profiles (P = 0.037). These data showed that the GG genotype could be associated with increased risk of CAD in a sample of Iranian population.
