Sequence Variants of SIRT6 Gene Promoter in Myocardial Infarction

Genetic Testing and Molecular Biomarkers

Abstract

Coronary artery disease (CAD), including myocardial infarction (MI), is a common complex disease caused by atherosclerosis. Although more than 50 genetic variants have been associated with CAD, these loci collectively account for only 10% of CAD cases. Genetic variants of low and rare frequencies have been proposed as the main causes of CAD. SIRT6, one of the highly conserved NAD-dependent class III deacetylases, has been implicated in cardiovascular diseases. Considering the important roles that SIRT6 plays in the cardiovascular system, inflammation, and lipid and cholesterol metabolism, genetic variants were hypothesized to contribute to MI development. The promoter regions of the SIRT6 gene were genetically analyzed in large cohorts of MI patients (n = 371) and ethnically-matched controls (n = 383). A total of 15 DNA sequence variants (DSVs) were identified, including seven single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Two novel heterozygous DSVs, g.4183823G>C and g.4183742G>A, were identified in two MI patients but in none of the controls. Two SNPs, g.4183685T>C (rs4359565) and g.4182942C>A (rs3760905), were found in MI patients with significantly higher frequencies compared with controls. These DSVs identified in MI patients may...Continue Reading

Cardiovascular Inflammation

Inflammation plays a significant role in the development of cardiovascular diseases, an understanding of these endogenous processes is critical for evaluating the risks and potential treatment strategies. Discover the latest research on cardiovascular inflammation here.

Cardiovascular Disease Pathophysiology

Cardiovascular disease involves several different processes that contribute to the pathological mechanism, including hyperglycemia, inflammation, atherosclerosis, hypertension and more. Vasculature stability plays a critical role in the development of the disease. Discover the latest research on cardiovascular disease pathophysiology here.

Atherosclerosis Disease Progression

Atherosclerosis is the buildup of plaque on artery walls, causing stenosis which can eventually lead to clinically apparent cardiovascular disease. Find the latest research on atherosclerosis disease progression here.
