Genetic Variant in the CYP19A1 Gene Associated with Coronary Artery Disease

Abstract: The CYP19A1 gene encodes the enzyme aromatase, which is responsible for the biosynthesis of estrogens. The rs10046 polymorphism of CYP19A1 gene has been investigated in two studies on the occurrence of hypertension, but there are no studies on its correlation with coronary artery disease (CAD). We investigated 189 subjects who were hospitalized at “KAT” General Hospital of Athens and underwent coronary angiography. Of these, 123 were found with CAD with an average age of 60 years and constituted the patients g… Show more

“…For the rs10,046 polymorphism of CYP19gene, the exact functional activity is not clearly understood, and it seems not to have an autonomous function, but it has been claimed that in conjunction with other polymorphisms, the rs10,046 polymorphism may influence the levels of mRNA and its stability (Bampali et al, 2015), so it can be associated with altered levels of the aromatase enzyme and affected estrogen metabolism.…”

“…In the meantime, variations in this gene have the ability to fluctuate the levels of circulating hormones which allude to speculate that the polymorphisms such as rs10046, a T/C substitution at the 3' untranslated region of CYP19A1 gene, are having an impact on breast cancer risk (31) . The exact function of this polymorphism is properly unknown, yet it has been claimed that this may lead to influence levels of mRNA and its stability (32) , therefore it can be associated with altered levels of the aromatase enzyme and affected estrogen metabolism. This rs10046 polymorphism was examined extensively in different populations.…”

“…В исследовании Letonja M, et al (2005) авторы пришли к выводу, что у субъектов европеоидной расы ОНП повторов (TTTA)n не влияет на генетическую предрасположенность к ИБС [60]. Bampali K, et al (2015) провели обследование 189 мужчин и женщин, которые показали, что у мужчин ОНП rs10046 (C/T) гена CYP19A1 коррелирует с ИБС, и, что носители аллеля C имеют более высокую вероятность развития заболевания [61].…”
