Abstract

Background

Several genome-wide association studies showed that a series of genetic variants located at the chromosome 9p21 locus are strongly associated with coronary artery disease (CAD).

Rationale and purpose of the study

In the present study, the relationship of rs3088440 (G > A) in cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (CDKN2A) gene site with the presence of coronary artery disease (CAD) and its severity was evaluated in an Iranian population.

Methods and results

The presence of rs3088440 (G > A) genotypes was assessed by polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR–RFLP) technique in 324 CAD patients and 148 normal controls. rs3088440 (G > A) polymorphism was associated with increased risk of CAD in the total population (adjusted OR = 1.76, 95% CI = 1.10–2.82; p-value = 0.017) or in women (adjusted OR = 2.96, 95% CI = 1.34–6.55; p-value = 0.007), but not in the men (adjusted OR = 1.35, 95% CI = 0.70–2.6; p-value = 0.368).

Conclusions

Our findings suggest that the presence of rs3088440 (G > A) is potentially linked with the risk of CAD and its severity in whole study subjects or in women only, independent of CAD risk factors.
