ABSTRACT
Objectives: The aim of the present study is to assess the association between the human GOSR2 gene and coronary artery disease using a haplotype-based case-control study in Chinese Han population.
Methods: A total of 283 coronary artery disease patients and 280 controls were genotyped for the human GOSR2 gene (rs197932, rs3785889, rs197922, rs17608766, and rs16941382). Data were analyzed for three separate groups: the total subjects, men, and women.
Results: For the total subjects, the frequency of the G-T haplotype established by rs3785889-rs16941382 was significantly higher in the coronary artery disease patients as compared to the control subjects (P=0.009). Multiple logistic regression analysis also confirmed that the subjects with G-T haplotype established by rs3785889-rs16941382 (homozygote) were found having significantly higher chance suffering from coronary artery disease than the ones without this haplotype (OR=1.887, P=0.007).
Conclusions: The G-T haplotype established by rs3785889-rs16941382 may be a risk genetic marker for coronary artery disease patients in Chinese Han population.
