ASSOCIATION OF THE VARIANTS OF NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE OF THE GENE ADIPOQ WITH PLASMATIC LEVEL OF ADIPONECTIN, THE GRADE OF CORONARY ATHEROSCLEROSIS SEVERITY AND RATE OF CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES

Abstract

Aim. The search for genetic markers of ADIPOQ, associated with the level of adiponectin and development of coronary atherosclerosis.Material and methods. To the study, patients included, who had undergone diagnostic coronary arteriography in 2011-2012 in the NMRCPM with assessment of the severity of coronary atherosclerosis. The level of adiponectin was measured in plasma with the test-system based on the immune enzyme analysis. Genetic variants rs17300539, rs182052 and rs266729 gene ADIPOQ were measured realtime (Applied Biosystems, 7500 Real Time PCR System). Alleles of the studied variants were summarized by a unified score of genetic risk (SGR).Results. To the study, 447 patients included, of those 319 males (70,7%). Median of age was 61 [55-69] y.o. All patients were selected to 2 groups by SGR (≤2 and >2, respectively). Groups differed by the level of adiponectin 7,64 vs 8,29 mcg/mL (р=0,01), total cholesterol 4,60 vs 5,00 mM/L (p=0,03), cholesterol of low density lipoproteides 2,8 vs 3,09 mM/L (p=0,03), and the rate of unstable angina development 2,15% vs 6,8% (р=0,02) and type 2 diabetes 11,8% vs 21,1% (р=0,01), respectively. There was no difference in the groups by Syntax and Gensini score.Conclusion. Genetic score based on the three variants of ADIPOQ does determine the plasmatic level of adiponectin and risk of unstable angina and diabetes, but not the grade of coronary atherosclerosis.
