Abstrakt: Purpose: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a major cause of death worldwide. There is relatively little data available on the genetic susceptibility to CAD in the Iraqi population. We have therefore investigated the association between angiotensin II type 1 receptor gene polymorphism A1166C and the presence of CAD in a sample of the Iraqi population.
Methods: This case-control study enrolled 150 CAD patients, with CAD confirmed by coronary angiography, and 200 controls. The AT1R polymorphism A1166C was analyzed by the allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (AS-PCR) technique. Serum analyses, such as lipid concentrations, were measured and analyzed.
Results: The C allele and CC genotype frequencies were significantly higher in patients with CAD compared to the controls. Logistic regression analysis showed that the codominant, dominant, and recessive models were associated with risk of CAD of (OR = 1.32, 95% CI: 1.2-1.4, P = 0.000; OR = 1.25, 95% CI: 1.1-1.3, P = 0.000, OR = 1.27, 95% CI: 1.1-1.3, P = 0.000, OR = 1.18, 95% CI: 1.0-1.4), respectively. In the patient group, the presence of the mutant C allele was significantly associated with higher levels of CAD risk factors such as total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL).
Conclusion: The study indicated that the A1166C polymorphism may be associated with the presence of CAD in the Iraqi population. The AT1R polymorphism may therefore be a useful marker of susceptibility to CAD.
