Popis: | In view of growing body of evidence favouring the association of aberrations in one-carbon metabolism and oxidative stress in the aetiology of coronary artery disease (CAD), we investigated the risk associated with polymorphisms regulating the folate uptake and transport such as the glutamate carboxypeptidase II (GCPII) C1561T, reduced folate carrier 1 (RFC1) G80A and cytosolic serine hydroxymethyltransferase (cSHMT) C1420T. We further evaluated the impact of seven putatively functional polymorphisms of this pathway on oxidative stress markers. Genotyping was performed on 288 CAD cases and 266 healthy controls along with the dietary folate assessment. GCPII C1561T polymorphism was found to be an independent risk factor (OR 2.71, 95% CI 1.47–4.98) for CAD, whereas cSHMT C1420T conferred protection (OR 0.51, 95% CI 0.37–0.70). Oxidative stress markers like the plasma levels of malondialdehyde, protein carbonyls and 8-oxo-deoxyguanosine were significantly increased and total glutathione was significantly decreased in CAD cases. Elevated oxidative stress was observed in subjects carrying GCPII 1561T and MTRR 66A-variant alleles and low oxidative stress was observed in the subjects carrying cSHMT 1420T and TYMS 5′-UTR 2R allele. GCPII C1561T, MTHFR C677T and MTRR A66G polymorphisms were observed to influence the homocysteine levels (P < 0.05). SHMT and TYMS variants were found to decrease oxidative stress by increasing the folate pool (r = 0.38, P = 0.003) and also by increasing the antioxidant status (r = 0.28, P = 0.03). Influence of dietary folate status was not observed. Overall, this study revealed elevated oxidative stress that was associated with the aberrations in one-carbon metabolism which could possibly influence the CAD risk. |
