Methylation of p15INK4b and Expression of ANRIL on Chromosome 9p21 Are Associated with Coronary Artery Disease
BACKGROUND Genome-wide association studies have identified that multiple single nucleiotide polymorphisms on chromosome 9p21 are tightly associated with coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the mechanism linking this risk locus to CAD remains unclear. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS The methylation status of six candidate genes (BAX, BCL-2, TIMP3, p14(ARF), p15(INK4b) and p16(INK4a)) in 205...
متن کاملANRIL expression is associated with atherosclerosis risk at chromosome 9p21.
OBJECTIVE We tested the hypothesis that expression of transcripts adjacent to the chromosome 9p21 (Chr9p21) locus of coronary artery disease was affected by the genotype at this locus and associated with atherosclerosis risk. METHODS AND RESULTS We replicated the locus for coronary artery disease (P=0.007; OR=1.28) and other manifestations of atherosclerosis such as carotid plaque (P=0.003; O...
متن کاملDirect Bisulfite Sequencing and Methylation Specific PCR to Detect Methylation of p15INK4b and F7 genes in Coronary Artery Disease Patients
Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) have identified genetic variants contributing to the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) at the chromosome 9p21 locus. The chromosome 9p21 is an important susceptibility locus for several multifactorial diseases like ischemic stroke, aortic aneurysm, type 2 diabetes mellitus and coronary artery disease (CAD). F7 gene because of its role in activating the ...
متن کاملChromosome 9p21 SNPs Associated with Multiple Disease Phenotypes Correlate with ANRIL Expression
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on chromosome 9p21 are associated with coronary artery disease, diabetes, and multiple cancers. Risk SNPs are mainly non-coding, suggesting that they influence expression and may act in cis. We examined the association between 56 SNPs in this region and peripheral blood expression of the three nearest genes CDKN2A, CDKN2B, and ANRIL using total and allelic...
متن کاملCoronary artery disease-associated locus on chromosome 9p21 and early markers of atherosclerosis.
BACKGROUND Genome-wide association studies have recently identified a locus on chromosome 9p21 that influences risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). The effect of the locus on early markers of atherosclerosis is unknown. We examined its association with carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and brachial flow-mediated dilatation (FMD). METHODS AND RESULTS We genotyped 2277 individuals, age 24...
