АSSOCIATION OF VARIOUS GENETIC MARKERS OF CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES AND SUDDEN CARDIAC DEATH IN MEN

Abstract

Aim. To search and study the association of some candidate genes polymorphysms of various cardiovascular diseases and sudden cardiac death in men.Material and methods. The sudden cardiac death group (SCD) is collected by the WHO criteria with suddenly died men underwent court-medicine expertise (n=274). Control group was matched by the age and gender from the DNA bank of HAPIEE and MONICA trials. Genotyping of groups was done according to polymorhysms SCN5A, rs187238 gene IL-18, rs1799864 gene CCR2, rs3864180 gene GPC5, rs1799983 gene eNOS, rs2228314 gene SREBF-2, rs1800588 gene HL, rs10757278, rs1333049 with methods of PDRF and realtime PCR.Results. No significant differences found between the SCD group and control group by the prevalence of genotypes SCN5A, rs187238 gene IL-18, rs3864180 gene GPC5, rs1799983 gene eNOS, rs1800588 gene HL.In SCD group the decrease of homozygotes by CC polymorphism rs2228314 found in gene SREBF-2 and the decrease of heterozygotes GC comparing to control group (HR=4,074, 95% CI 1,843-9,002, р=0,0002; HR=0,442, 95% CI 0,302-0,647, р=0,0001, reap.). In SCD group carriers of GG genotype polymorphism rs10757278 and CC poly morphism rs1333049 are significantly more prevalent than in control group (HR=1,814, 95% CI 1,159-2,839, р=0,011; HR=1,744, 95% CI 1,104-2,754, р=0,019, resp.). The part of GA carriers of polymorphism rs1799864 gene CCR2 is more prevalent in SCD group comparing to control (HR=1,558, 95% CI 1,051-2,308, р=0,029).Conclusion. Polymorphisms rs10757278, rs1333049, rs2228314 gene SREBF-2, rs1799864 gene CCR2 are associated with sudden cardiac death in men.
