Association between the Polymorphisms in Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 and the Risk of Coronary Atherosclerosis: A Case-Controlled Study

Abstract: Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), an important immune adhesion molecule, is related to the atherosclerosis. We explored the association between the polymorphisms of the ICAM-1 gene and coronary atherosclerotic stenosis to determine whether any risk factors correlate with genetic polymorphisms in Chinese patients with coronary atherosclerosis. Using the SNaPshot assay, we examined six SNPs of rs5491, rs281428, rs281432, rs5496, rs5498 and rs281437 in 604 patients diagnosed with coronary atheroscleroti… Show more

“…In addition to its association with sICAM1 levels, the ICAM1 SNP rs5498 has been shown to associate with a plethora of diseases in Asians including diabetic microvascular complications [37], proliferative diabetic retinopathy [38], oral carcinogenesis [39], migraine [40], and coronary atherosclerosis [41]. Because rs5498 encodes a lysine-to-glutamic acid mutation at position 469 (K469E) which alters the electrostatic property of the binding site for ICAM1’s ligand LFA-1 [42], it is likely that changes in ICAM1’s affinity to LFA-1 contribute to the inflammation-related diseases.…”

“…It is well-documented that IL-6, ICAM-1 and MCP-1 are multifunctional micro-inflammatory cytokines involved in immune and inflammatory responses produced by a variety of cells in vivo [ 41 , 42 ]. Recent and previous studies demonstrated that the plasma IL-6, ICAM-1, C-reactive protein (CRP) and TNF-α level increased in patients with hypertension, and further rise with the degree of renal damage, suggesting that micro-inflammatory cytokines involved in the development of hypertensive renal damage [ 43 , 44 ].…”

“…In Swedish Caucasians, the C allele of rs281432 was significantly associated with type 1 diabetes ( Ma et al 2006 ). In a recent study in a Chinese population, Yang et al (2014) found a significantly higher frequency of a three-allele haplotype containing the rs281432 G allele in coronary atherosclerosis cases, and the G allele was associated with a significantly higher level of triglycerides. Bielinski et al (2008 , 2011 ) reported that, in Chinese and African Americans, individuals carrying the rs281432 GG genotype had higher circulating levels of sICAM-1 compared with those with the CC genotype.…”

“…Findings of the present study support a role of endothelial dysfunction in the underlying mechanisms of the cardiovascular effects of As exposure. Specifically, ICAM1 rs281432 is an intronic SNP that has been studied in diabetes and subclinical atherosclerosis, although findings have been mixed ( Bielinski et al 2008 ; Ma et al 2006 ; Yang et al 2014 ). For instance, in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis, Bielinski et al (2008) observed no association between rs281432 and subclinical atherosclerosis.…”
