Association of MCP-1 -2518 A/G single nucleotide polymorphism with the serum level of CRP in Slovak patients with ischemic heart disease, angina pectoris and hypertension

Result description

The aim of our work was to found if MCP-1 -2518 (A/G) single nucleotide polymorfism (SNP) influences anyway the serum concentrations of hsCRP (high sensitive CRP) both in patiens suffering from ischemic heart disease (IHD), myocardial infarction (MI), angina pectoris (AP) and hypertension (HT) and in control group of healthy subjects. First, we estimated the serum levels of hsCRP. We found that patients with AP had significantly higher serum level of hsCRP than both control group of healthy subjects (P= 0.043) and IHD patients without AP (P = 0.026). The presence of the mutant G allele statistically significantly correlated with the higher serum levels of hsCRP in patients with IHD (P = 0.016), AP (P = 0.004) and HT (P = 0.013). Higher correlations were found in men (AP: P = 0.019; HT: P = 0.047). In all cases the highest levels of hsCRP were found both in patients and healthy controls with homozygous GG genotype.
