Association between polymorphisms of eNOS and GPx-1 genes, activity of free-radical processes and in-stent restenosis
2012
Our aim was to examine correlations between polymorphisms in five antioxidant enzymes genes, activity of free-radical processes, and the risk of restenosis after coronary artery stenting with bare metal stents (BMS). A total of 101 male patients who underwent intracoronary stenting using BMS and coronary angiography follow-up of 6 months were enrolled in: group with in-stent restenosis (n = 44) and without restenosis (n = 57). The content of lipoperoxides and malondialdehyde (MDA) in Low-density lipoprotein (LDL), activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) in erythrocytes, and genotypes polymorphisms of the CAT gene (−262C/T), paraoxonase-1 (PON-1) gene (163T/A and 575A/G), endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene (298G/T (rs#1799983) and −786T/C), GPx-1 gene (599C/T (rs#1050450)), and glutathione-S-transferase (GSTP) gene (313A/G) were determined. In carriers of the minor allele of 599C/T polymorphism of the GPx-1 gene, activity of GPx in erythrocytes was lower by 17 % than in wild allele homozygotes, while the content of lipoperoxides in LDL was higher by 74 %. T-allele of 599C/T polymorphism of the GPx-1 gene (OR = 2.9; 95 % CI: 1.23–6.82) and T-allele of 298G/T polymorphism of the eNOS gene (OR = 2.79; 95 % CI: 1.17–6.66) were associated with the risk of in-stent restenosis. Minor alleles of polymorphisms 298G/T of the eNOS gene and 599C/T of the GPx-1 gene are associated with an increased risk of in-stent restenosis. Minor allele of the GPx-1 gene 599C/T polymorphism leads to a decrease of the GPx activity and increase of the activity of free-radical processes.
