Analysis of the APOB Gene and Apolipoprotein B Serum Levels in a Mexican Population with Acute Coronary Syndrome: Association with the Single Nucleotide Variants rs1469513, rs673548, rs676210, and rs1042034.

ABSTRACT: Apolipoprotein B (APOB) is associated with the development of atherosclerosis and consequently in the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) physiopathology. Single number variants (SNVs) in apolipoprotein B gene (APOB) influence over the susceptibility for this syndrome. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of the rs1469513, rs673548, rs676210, and rs1042034 SNVs and serum levels of APOB in the risk of ACS in a population from western Mexico. We included 300 patients in the group of cases (ACSG) and 300 individuals in the control group (CG). APOB levels were evaluated by immunonephelometry, and SNVs were genotyped with TaqMan probes. We found significant allelic and genotypic differences between groups for rs673548 and rs676210 (OR = 1.33, p=0.030, OR = 2.69, p < 0.001) and rs1042034 (OR = 0.50, p=0.037) SNVs. We found a risk haplotype TAGT (OR: 2.14, IC 1.50-3.04, p < 0.001). Our findings support a significant risk association between rs673548 and rs676210 variants for ACS; meanwhile, rs1042034 could be considered protective factor in a western Mexican population. Also, in this population, haplotype TAGT may confer 2.14 times a higher risk. APOB serum levels were compared by genotype variants in both groups without any significant statistical difference.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Genetic variation at 1p13 modulates serum lipid levels and the risk of coronary heart disease through the regulation of serum lipid levels. Here we investigate if the interaction between genetic variants at 1p13 and serum lipid levels affects the risk of non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI) in the Stockholm Heart Epidemiology Program (SHEEP), a large population based case control study. METHODS: In the present study only non fatal MI cases (n?=?1213, men/women: 852/361) and controls (n?=?1516, men/women =1054/507) matched by age, sex and residential area, were included. Three SNPs 12740374?G/T, rs599839A/G and rs646776T/C mapping at 1p13 were analysed for association with serum lipid levels and the risk of MI by a weighted least square regression and logistic regression analyses, respectively. To analyse the effect of the interaction between genetic variants and serum lipid levels on the risk of MI, we applied the biological model of interaction that estimates the difference in risk, expressed as OR (95%CI), observed in the presence and in the absence of both exposures. One derived measure is the Synergy index (S) and 95%CI, where S?>?1 indicates synergy and S?<?1 antagonism between the two interaction terms. RESULTS: Rs12740374G/T and rs646776T/C were in strong linkage disequilibrium (LD) (r2?=?0.99), therefore only rs599839A/G and rs646776 were included in the analysis. Consistently with published data, presence of the rare genotypes was associated with reduced total-, LDL-cholesterol and ApoB serum levels (all p?<?0.05) as compared to the reference genotype, but was not associated with the risk of MI.However, the increased risk of MI observed in individual exposed to high (?75th percentile) serum lipid levels was offset in subjects carrying the rare alleles G and C. In particular, the risk of MI associated with high ApoB serum levels OR (95%CI) 2.27 (1.86-2.77) was reduced to 1.76 (1.33-2.34) in the presence of the G allele at rs599839 with an S of 0.47 (0.20-0.90). CONCLUSIONS: These results indicate that an antagonism between ApoB serum levels and genetic variants at 1p13 contributes to reduce the risk of non-fatal MI in the presence of high ApoB serum levels.

Project description:Non-communicable diseases, including cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), are increasing in African populations. High serum low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-cholesterol) levels are a known risk factor for CVDs in European populations, but the link remains poorly understood among Africans. This study investigated the associations between serum LDL-cholesterol levels and selected variants in the low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), apolipoprotein B (APOB), proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) and low density lipoprotein receptor adaptor protein 1 (LDLRAP1) genes in some selected African populations. Nineteen SNPs were selected from publicly available African whole genome sequence data based on functional prediction and allele frequency. SNPs were genotyped in 1000 participants from the AWI-Gen, study selected from the extremes of LDL-cholesterol level distribution (500 with LDL-cholesterol>3.5 mmol/L and 500 with LDL-cholesterol<1.1 mmol/L). The minor alleles at five of the six associated SNPs were significantly associated (P<0.05) with lower LDL-cholesterol levels: LDLRAP1 rs12071264 (OR 0.56, 95% CI: 0.39-0.75, P = 2.73x10-4) and rs35910270 (OR 0.78, 95% CI: 0.64-0.94, P = 0.008); APOB rs6752026 (OR 0. 55, 95% CI: 0.41-0.72, P = 2.82x10-5); LDLR: rs72568855 (OR 0.47, 95% CI: 0.27-0.82, P = 0.008); and PCSK9 rs45613943 (OR = 0.72, 95% CI: 0.58-0.88, P = 0.001). The minor allele of the sixth variant was associated with higher LDL-cholesterol levels: APOB rs679899 (OR 1.41, 95% CI: 1.06-1.86, P = 0.016). A replication analysis in the Africa America Diabetes Mellitus (AADM) study found the PCSK9 variant to be significantly associated with low LDL-cholesterol levels (Beta = -0.10). Since Africans generally have lower LDL-cholesterol levels, these LDL-cholesterol associated variants may be involved in adaptation due to unique gene-environment interactions. In conclusion, using a limited number of potentially functional variants in four genes, we identified significant associations with lower LDL-cholesterol levels in sub-Saharan Africans.

Project description:BackgroundApolipoprotein B (apoB) provides an integrated measure of atherogenic risk. Whether apoB levels and apoB lowering hold incremental predictive information on residual risk after acute coronary syndrome beyond that provided by low-density lipoprotein cholesterol is uncertain.MethodsThe ODYSSEY OUTCOMES trial (Evaluation of Cardiovascular Outcomes After an Acute Coronary Syndrome During Treatment With Alirocumab) compared the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitor alirocumab with placebo in 18 924 patients with recent acute coronary syndrome and elevated atherogenic lipoproteins despite optimized statin therapy. Primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE; coronary heart disease death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, fatal/nonfatal ischemic stroke, hospitalization for unstable angina). Associations between baseline apoB or apoB at 4 months and MACE were assessed in adjusted Cox proportional hazards and propensity score-matched models.ResultsMedian follow-up was 2.8 years. In proportional hazards analysis in the placebo group, MACE incidence increased across increasing baseline apoB strata (3.2 [95% CI, 2.9-3.6], 4.0 [95% CI, 3.6-4.5], and 5.5 [95% CI, 5.0-6.1] events per 100 patient-years in strata <75, 75-<90, ≥90 mg/dL, respectively; Ptrend<0.0001) and after adjustment for low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (Ptrend=0.035). Higher baseline apoB stratum was associated with greater relative (Ptrend<0.0001) and absolute reduction in MACE with alirocumab versus placebo. In the alirocumab group, the incidence of MACE after month 4 decreased monotonically across decreasing achieved apoB strata (4.26 [95% CI, 3.78-4.79], 3.09 [95% CI, 2.69-3.54], and 2.41 [95% CI, 2.11-2.76] events per 100 patient-years in strata ≥50, >35-<50, and ≤35 mg/dL, respectively). Compared with propensity score-matched patients from the placebo group, treatment hazard ratios for alirocumab also decreased monotonically across achieved apoB strata. Achieved apoB was predictive of MACE after adjustment for achieved low-density lipoprotein cholesterol or non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol but not vice versa.ConclusionsIn patients with recent acute coronary syndrome and elevated atherogenic lipoproteins, MACE increased across baseline apoB strata. Alirocumab reduced MACE across all strata of baseline apoB, with larger absolute reductions in patients with higher baseline levels. Lower achieved apoB was associated with lower risk of MACE, even after accounting for achieved low-density lipoprotein cholesterol or non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, indicating that apoB provides incremental information. Achievement of apoB levels as low as ≤35 mg/dL may reduce lipoprotein-attributable residual risk after acute coronary syndrome.RegistrationURL: https://www.Clinicaltrialsgov; Unique identifier: NCT01663402.
