Research Abstract |
Most cases of atherosclerosis result from the interactions of multiple genetic and environmental factors. To investigate the association between gene polymorphisms and clinical parameter of atherosclerosis such as carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI), we conducted cross-sectional study of 1,295 Japanese (502 men and 793 women) who participated in a general health check in western rural community of the Goto Islands from 2000 to 2012. We analyzed polymorphisms of four genes such as MTHFR(rs1801133), HDAC4(rs3791398), CARKL(rs465563), and Adiponectin(rs1501299) which were reported the significant relation with atherosclerosis.The genotype distributions of four genes were as follows, MTHFR (CC: 43.2%, CT: 46.5%and TT: 10.3%), Adiponectin(GG: 53.7%, GT: 38.9%, and TT: 7.4%), HDAC4(GG: 80.4%, GA: 18.5%, and AA: 1.1%), and CARKL(GG: 12.7%, GA: 44.5%, and AA: 42.8%). No significant association between genotype and CAVI nor CIMT was observed. Next, we categorized into five groups based on the number of risky genotype and analyzed the association according to a group. Although no significant association was observed both in CIMT and CAVI, positive tendency was observed in CAVI. Further investigation with large number of participants is necessary to clarify the association between gene polymorphism and atherosclerosis.
