Abstract

Sirtuins and uncoupling proteins have been implicated in cardiovascular diseases by controlling oxidative stress. We sought to investigate the association of sirtuins and uncoupling proteins single nucleotide polymorphisms with total carotid plaque area and morphology measured by ultrasonographic gray scale median. We analyzed 1356 stroke-free subjects (60% women, mean age = 68 ± 9 years) from the Northern Manhattan Study. Multiple linear regression models were used to evaluate the association of 85 single nucleotide polymorphisms in 11 sirtuins/uncoupling protein genes with total plaque area and gray scale median after controlling for demographics, vascular risk factors (RFs), and population stratification. We investigated effect modifications of these relationship by gender and RFs and performed stratified analysis if the interaction effect had P < 0·005. Among individuals with present plaque (55%), the mean total plaque area was 20·3 ± 20·8 mm(2) and gray scale median 90 ± 29. After adjustment, SIRT6 rs107251 was significantly associated with total plaque area (β = 0·30 per copy of T allele increase, Bonferroni-corrected P = 0·005). T allele carriers of rs1430583 in UCP1 showed a decreased gray scale median in women but not ...Continue Reading

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.
