Associations of corin genetic polymorphisms with salt sensitivity, blood pressure changes, and hypertension incidence in Chinese adults.

ABSTRACT: Corin, a transmembrane serine protease that can cleave pro-atrial natriuretic peptide (Pro-ANP) into smaller bioactive molecule atrial natriuretic peptide, has been shown to be involved in the pathophysiology of hypertension, cardiac hypertrophy. We sought to examine the associations of corin genetic variations with salt sensitivity, blood pressure (BP) changes and hypertension incidence. We studied participants of the original Baoji Salt-Sensitive cohort, recruited from 124 families from seven Chinese villages in 2004 who sequentially received a usual baseline salt diet, a 7-day low salt diet (3 g/day) and a 7-day high salt diet (18 g/day), respectively. They were followed up for 8 years (in 2009, 2012) to evaluate the development of hypertension. Corin SNP rs3749584 was significantly associated with diastolic BP (DBP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) response to low-salt diet, while rs4695253, rs17654278 were associated with pulse pressure (PP) response to low-salt diet. SNPs rs4695253, rs12509275, rs2351783, rs2271036, rs2271037 were significantly associated with systolic BP (SBP), DBP, and MAP responses to high-salt diet. In addition, SNPs rs12641823, rs6834933, rs2271036, and rs22710367 were significantly associated with the longitudinal changes in SBP, DBP, MAP, or PP over 8 years of follow-up. SNP rs73814824 was significantly associated with the incidence of hypertension over 8 years. Gene-based analysis showed that corin gene was significantly associated with longitudinal BP changes and hypertension incidence after 8-year follow-up. This study suggests that corin may play a role in salt sensitivity, BP progression, and development of hypertension.

Project description:Background and aimsIdentify novel metabolite associations with blood pressure (BP) salt-sensitivity and hypertension.Methods and resultsThe Genetic Epidemiology Network of Salt Sensitivity (GenSalt) Replication study includes 698 Chinese participants who underwent a 3-day baseline examination followed by a 7-day low-sodium feeding and 7-day high-sodium feeding. Latent mixture models identified three trajectories of blood pressure (BP) responses to the sodium interventions. We selected 50 most highly salt-sensitive and 50 most salt-resistant participants for untargeted metabolomics profiling. Multivariable adjusted mixed logistic regression models tested the associations of baseline metabolites with BP salt-sensitivity. Multivariable adjusted mixed linear regression models tested the associations of BP salt-sensitivity with metabolite changes during the sodium interventions. Identified metabolites were tested for associations with hypertension among 1249 Bogalusa Heart Study (BHS) participants using multiple logistic regression. Fifteen salt-sensitivity metabolites were associated with hypertension in the BHS. Baseline values of serine, 2-methylbutyrylcarnitine and isoleucine directly associated with high salt-sensitivity. Among them, serine indirectly associated with hypertension while 2-methylbutyrylcarnitine and isoleucine directly associated with hypertension. Baseline salt-sensitivity status predicted changes in 14 metabolites when switching to low-sodium or high-sodium interventions. Among them, glutamate, 1-carboxyethylvaline, 2-methylbutyrylcarnitine, 3-methoxytyramine sulfate, glucose, alpha-ketoglutarate, hexanoylcarnitine, gamma-glutamylisoleucine, gamma-glutamylleucine, and gamma-glutamylphenylalanine directly associated with hypertension. Conversely, serine, histidine, threonate and 5-methyluridine indirectly associated with hypertension. Together, these metabolites explained an additional 7% of hypertension susceptibility when added to a model including traditional risk factors.ConclusionsOur findings contribute to the molecular characterization of BP response to sodium and provide novel biological insights into salt-sensitive hypertension.

Project description:ObjectiveRenalase, a novel secretory flavoprotein with amine oxidase activity, is secreted into the blood by the kidneys and is hypothesized to participate in blood pressure (BP) regulation. We investigated the associations of renalase with BP and the risk of hypertension by examining renalase single nucleopeptide polymorphism (SNPs), serum renalase levels, and renal expression of renalase in humans.Methods① Subjects (n = 514) from the original Baoji Salt-Sensitive Study cohort were genotyped to investigate the association of renalase SNPs with longitudinal BP changes and the risk of hypertension during 14 years of follow-up. ② Two thousand three hundred and ninety two participants from the Hanzhong Adolescent Hypertension Study cohort were used to examine the association of serum renalase levels with hypertension. Renalase expression in renal biopsy specimens from 193 patients were measured by immunohistochemistry. ③ Renalase expression was compared in hypertensive vs. normotensive patients.Results① SNP rs7922058 was associated with 14-year change in systolic BP, and rs10887800, rs796945, rs1935582, rs2296545, and rs2576178 were significantly associated with 14-year change in diastolic BP while rs1935582 and rs2576178 were associated with mean arterial pressure change over 14 years. In addition, SNPs rs796945, rs1935582, and rs2576178 were significantly associated with hypertension incidence. Gene-based analysis found that renalase gene was significantly associated with hypertension incidence over 14-year follow-up after adjustment for multiple measurements. ② Hypertensive subjects had higher serum renalase levels than normotensive subjects (27.2 ± 0.4 vs. 25.1 ± 0.2 μg/mL). Serum renalase levels and BPs showed a linear correlation. In addition, serum renalase was significantly associated with the risk of hypertension [OR = 1.018 (1.006-1.030)]. ③ The expression of renalase in human renal biopsy specimens significantly decreased in hypertensive patients compared to non-hypertensive patients (0.030 ± 0.001 vs. 0.038 ± 0.004).ConclusionsThese findings indicate that renalase may play an important role in BP progression and development of hypertension.

Project description:Genome-wide association studies suggest that there is a significant genetic susceptibility to salt sensitivity of blood pressure (SSBP), but it still needs to be verified in varied and large sample populations. We attempted to verify the associations between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in candidate genes and SSBP and to estimate their interaction with potential risk factors. A total of 29 candidate SNPs were genotyped in the 2,057 northern Han Chinese population from the Systems Epidemiology Study on Salt Sensitivity. A modified Sullivan's acute oral saline load and diuresis shrinkage test (MSAOSL-DST) was used to identify SSBP. A generalized linear model was conducted to analyze the association between SNPs and SSBP, and Bonferroni correction was used for multiple testing. Mediation analysis was utilized to explore the mediation effect of risk factors. Eleven SNPs in eight genes (PRKG1, CYBA, BCAT1, SLC8A1, AGTR1, SELE, CYP4A11, and VSNL1) were identified to be significantly associated with one or more SSBP phenotypes (P < 0.05). Four SNPs (PRKG1/rs1904694 and rs7897633, CYP4A11/rs1126742, and CYBA/rs4673) were still significantly associated after Bonferroni correction (P < 0.0007) adjusted for age, sex, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, salt-eating habit, physical activity, and hypertension. Stratified analysis showed that CYBA/rs4673 was significantly associated with SSBP in hypertensive subjects (P < 0.0015) and CYP4A11/rs1126742 was significantly associated with SSBP in normotensive subjects (P < 0.0015). Subjects carrying both CYBA/rs4673-AA and AGTR1/rs2638360-GG alleles have a higher genetic predisposition to salt sensitivity due to the potential gene co-expression interaction. Expression quantitative trait loci analysis (eQTL) suggested that the above positive four SNPs showed cis-eQTL effects on the gene expression levels. Mediation analysis suggested that several risk factors were mediators of the relation between SNP and SSBP. This study suggests that the genetic variants in eight genes might contribute to the susceptibility to SSBP, and other risk factors may be the mediators.
