Abstract:
Objective To explore the correlation and significance of V312F locus polymorphism of PCSK9 gene in patients with coronary heart disease.Methods We selected 3560 patients with coronary heart disease who came to our hospital from January 2014 to January 2016 as the case group.They were divided into 5 subgroups:angina group,myocardial infarction group,silent myocardial ischemia group,ischemic cardiomyopathy group,and sudden death group,according to their anatomic and pathophysiological features.Data of 1 000 people for physical examination served as the control group.PCR assay combined with direct sequencing method was applied to test V312F locus polymorphism of PCSK9 gene.Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze relationship between V312F locus polymorphism of PCSK9 gene and types of coronary heart disease.The concentration of serum PCSK9 and lipids of the two groups were also measured.Results The serum levels of PCSK9,TC,TG and LDLC and ratio of positive family history in the case group were significantly higher than those in the control group,while the level of HDLC was lower than that of the controls (all P<0.05).Indexes of sudden death subgroup in the case group showed the most significant changes,while asymptomatic myocardial ischemia subgroup showed the weakest changes.The frequency of genotype TT,GT and allele T in the case group was 3.4%,16.6% and 11.7%,respectively,which was significantly higher than that in the control group (1.1%,10.2% and 6.2%) (all P<0.01).The highest frequency of genotype TT,GT and allele T was found in sudden death subgroup,and the lowest frequency of these indexes was found in asymptomatic myocardial ischemia subgroup (P<0.05).Results of Logistic regression analysis showed that genotype TT in V312F locus of PCSK9 gene was related to the severity of coronary heart disease (OR =8.463,95% CI from 3.505 to 17.854,P<0.001).Conclusion The mutation of V312F (T/G)locus of PCSK9 gene might be related to the severity of coronary heart disease.
