Associations between TAB2 gene polymorphisms and dilated cardiomyopathy in a Chinese population.
2020
Aim: The present study aimed to investigate the role of TAB2 gene polymorphisms in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) susceptibility and prognosis in a Chinese population. Materials & methods: A total of 343 DCM patients and 451 controls were enrolled and had their blood genotyped. Survival analysis was evaluated with Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression analysis. Results: G carriers (AG/GG) and AG genotype of rs237028 had a higher DCM susceptibility as well as a worse DCM prognosis. Additionally, C carriers (CT/CC) of rs652921 and G carriers (TG/GG) of rs521845 had a higher DCM risk and CC homozygote of rs652921 had a worse DCM prognosis. These associations were still significant after adjustment for the Bonferroni correction. Conclusion: TAB2 gene polymorphisms were associated with DCM susceptibility and prognosis in the Chinese population.
