| Abstract | ||
| background: (resistin is considered as a pro-inflammatory molecule and plays a role in the inflammatory response that lead to atherosclerosis) Aim: To evaluate the risk of resisten gene polymorphism (420C/G) in the development of Ischemic Heart Disease. To verify the relationship of the investigated SNPs with the metabolic changes related to (IHD), in particular, serum lipid profile. Methods: A case control study was performed at which 150 patients with IHD and 150 healthy individuals. Genotyping for SNP 420C>G in the resistin gene was performed by the polymerase chain reaction –restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Lipid profile were measured. Results: The genotype and allele frequencies of resistIn gene polymorphism in IHD and control persons were examined under the co-dominant, dominant and recessive models with the use of multi nominal logistic regression analysis. Neither genotype distribution nor the minor allele frequency showed significant changes among the comparison of the of IHD patients with the control group. The frequency of the G allele of 420(CG) polymorphism was significantly higher in ischemic heart diseases (IHD). There are significant increases in the level of LDL, triglyceride, VLDL, BMI and a significant decrease in the level of cholesterol in the group of patients with the GG+CG genotypes when they were compared with those of the CC genotype. It shows significant differences in BMI, Age, Cholesterol, LDL, and HDL in the group of IHD, and no significant difference was seen in VLDL and sex. Conclusion: The −420C>G SNP of resistin gene is not associated with ischemic heart disease in the population of Kerbala and Najaf. The G allele is seemed to increase serum lipid concentrations so it could be considered as an atherosclerotic parameter. | ||
