Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule I (PEC AMI )/leiomodin 1 ( LMOD1 ) gene polymorphism loci and the risk of carotid plaque vulnerability in patients with ischemic stroke. Methods Ischemic stroke patients with carotid plaque admitted to Beijing Tiantan Hospital from May 2014 to October 2017 were enrolled prospectively. The demographic data and relevant clinical information were collected Carotid artery high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to distinguish vulnerable and stable plaques. The patients were enrolled in vulnerable plaque group and stable plaque group in turn. Real-time polymerase chain reaction was used. The TaqMan probe was use to conduct genotyping and statistical analysis of the PECAM1 ,LMOD1 gene polymorphism loci rsl 867624 and rs2820315 in the vulnerable plaque group and the stable plaque group. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the risk factors affecting the vulnerability of carotid atherosclerotic plaques. Results A total of 270 ischemic stroke patients with carotid plaque were enrolled, including 189 with vulnerable plaques and 81 with stable plaques. The polymorphism analysis of the PECAM1 gene locus rsl867624 in the two groups showed that the allele T was a vulnerable plaque risk gene,and its gene frequency in the vulnerable plaque group and the stable plaque group was 87. 3% (330/378) and 79. 6% (129/162;OR, 1.759,95% CI 1.080 -2.864 respectively,P = 0. 022). Analysis of the LM0D1 gene SNP locus rs2820315 showed that allele C was a risk gene for vulnerable plaques,and its gene frequency in the vulnerable plaque group and the stable plaque group was 87.6% (331/378) and 80.9% respectively (13I/I62;0tf, I. 667,95% CI 1. 014 -2. 738, P =0. 042). Logistic regression analysis showed that age (OR, 1.069,95% CI 1.022-1. 118, P = 0.004 ),PECAM1 gene rsl867624 locus T/T genotype (OR, 2.202,95% CI 1. 035 -4. 688 tP =0. 041) ,and LMODl gene rs2820315 locus C/C genotype ( OR,2. 199,95% CI 1. 005 -4. 809 , P =0.048) were the risk factors for the formation of vulnerable plaques. Conclusion The single nucleotide polymorphism locus rsl867624 of PECAM1 gene and single nucleotide polymorphism locus rs2820315 of LMODl gene were associated with carotid plaque vulnerability.
