Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM1) Lys56Met and Gly241Arg gene variants, plasma-soluble ICAM1 concentrations, and risk of incident cardiovascular events in 23,014 initially healthy white women.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The objective of this study was to examine the association of 2 nonsynonymous intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM1) gene variants (Lys56Met and Gly241Arg) with baseline plasma soluble ICAM1 concentrations and with risk of total and selected cardiovascular disease (CVD) events in a prospective cohort of 23 014 apparently healthy white American women followed for 10 yea...
متن کاملAssociation of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM1) with diabetes and diabetic nephropathy
Diabetes and diabetic nephropathy are complex diseases affected by genetic and environmental factors. Identification of the susceptibility genes and investigation of their roles may provide useful information for better understanding of the pathogenesis and for developing novel therapeutic approaches. Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM1) is a cell surface glycoprotein expressed on endothel...
متن کاملInteraction of Intercellular Adhesion Molecule 1 (ICAM1) Polymorphisms and Environmental Tobacco Smoke on Childhood Asthma
Asthma is a chronic disease that is particularly common in children. The association between polymorphisms of the gene encoding intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM1) and gene-environment interactions with childhood asthma has not been fully investigated. A cross-sectional study was undertaken to investigate these associations among children in Taiwan. The effects of two functional single-nu...
متن کاملCross-sectional study of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and cardiovascular risk factors in apparently healthy men.
An elevated plasma concentration of the soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) is associated with increased risk for future coronary events. However, data exploring the interrelations of sICAM-1 with known cardiovascular risk factors are sparse. We determined sICAM-1 levels in 948 middle-aged men with no prior history of cardiovascular disease. sICAM-1 levels increased with age (P<...
متن کاملSoluble Intercellular Adhesion Molecule
Previous studies have suggested that intercellular ad¬ hesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1, CD54) may be involved in the pathogenesis ofasthma. In addition, a soluble form of ICAM-1 (sICAM-1) has been detected in increased concentrations in the sera of patients with certain in¬ flammatory conditions. To determine whether bron¬ chial asthma is associated with increased levels of sICAM-1 in serum and to as...
