Background/Aims: This study aimed to analyze the impact of microRNA-499 (miR-499) on the inflammatory damage of endothelial cells during coronary artery disease (CAD) via the targeting of PDCD4 through the NF-kB/ TNF-α signaling pathway. Methods: A total of 216 CAD patients (CAD group) and 90 healthy people (normal group) were enrolled in our study. Endothelial cells were collected and assigned into normal, OX-LDL, negative control (NC), miR-499 inhibitor, miR-499 mimic, PDCD4 siRNA, and miR-499 inhibitor + PDCD4 siRNA groups. The qRT-PCR and western blotting were performed to detect the mRNA and protein expression levels of PDCD4 and miR-499. The MTT assay was performed to determine cell viability, ELISA was performed to determine the expression levels of inflammatory factors, and flow cytometry assay to evaluate cell apoptosis. Results: Increased miR-499 expression and decreased PDCD4 expression in the plasma were observed in the CAD group compared with the normal group, demonstrating a negative correlation between miR-499 and PDCD4. Compared to the normal and miR-499 inhibitor groups, the survival rate of cells and PDCD4 expression were decreased; and the expressions of miR-499, IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β, TNF-α, NF-kB, VCAM-1, ICAM-1 and MCP-1 and the apoptosis rate were all elevated in the OX-LDL, NC, miR-499 mimic, PDCD4 siRNA and miR-499 inhibitor + PDCD4 siRNA groups. Compared to the OX-LDL, NC and miR-499 inhibitor + PDCD4 siRNA groups, PDCD4 expression and the survival rate of cells were increased; and the IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β, TNF-α, NF-κB, VCAM-1, ICAM-1 and MCP-1 expression levels and the apoptosis rate were all reduced in the miR-499 inhibitor group. In the PDCD4 siRNA group, PDCD4 expression and the survival rate of cells were lower, and the expression levels of IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β, TNF-α, NF-κB, VCAM-1, ICAM-1 and MCP-1 and the apoptosis rate were all higher compared with the miR-499 mimic group. In the miR-499 inhibitor + PDCD4 siRNA group, PDCD4 expression and the survival rate of cells were higher, and the expression levels of IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β, TNF-α, NF-κB, VCAM-1, ICAM-1, and MCP-1 and the apoptosis rate were all lower than those in the PDCD4 siRNA group. Conclusion: Down-regulated miR-499 expression increased PDCD4 expression and protected endothelial cells from inflammatory damage during CAD by inhibiting the NF-κB/TNF-α signaling pathway.

BackgroundMetabolic syndrome (MS) is a condition that, when associated with ischemic heart disease and cardiovascular events, can be influenced by genetic variants and determine more severe coronary atherosclerosis.ObjectivesTo examine the contribution of genetic polymorphisms to the extension and severity of coronary disease in subjects with MS and recent acute coronary syndrome (ACS).MethodsPatients (n = 116, 68% males) aged 56 (9) years, with criteria for MS, were prospectively enrolled to the study during the hospitalization period after an ACS. Clinical and laboratory parameters, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, adiponectin, endothelial function, and the Gensini score were assessed. Polymorphisms of paraoxonase-1 (PON-1), methylenotetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), endothelial nitric oxide synthase (ENOS), angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R), apolipoprotein C3 (APOC3), lipoprotein lipase (LPL) were analysed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique, followed by the identification of restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP, and a genetic score was calculated. Parametric and non-parametric tests were used, as appropriate. Significance was set at p < 0.05.ResultsPolymorphisms of PON-1, MTHFR and ENOS were not in the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The DD genotype of LPL was associated with higher severity and greater extension of coronary lesions. Genetic score tended to be higher in patients with Gensini score < P50 (13.7 ± 1.5 vs. 13.0 ± 1.6, p = 0.066), with an inverse correlation between genetic and Gensini scores (R = -0.194, p = 0.078).ConclusionsThe LPL polymorphism contributed to the severity of coronary disease in patients with MS and recent ACS. Combined polymorphisms were associated with the extension of coronary disease, and the lower the genetic score the more severe the disease.

“…The T allele of the eNOS rs1799983 SNP was associated with a reduced eNOS activity and a lower nitrate concentration in blood (Mahmoodi et al 2016). Hence, the genetic factors (rs1799983-T allele reduces blood nitrate concentration) together with the dietary habits (high salt intake from fast-food and reduced nitrate intake from vegetables) may be the possible explanation for the significant association between subjects with rs1799983-GT genotype that consume fast-food regularly and a higher risk towards stroke.…”

The endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) rs1799983 polymorphism is known to increase the risk towards stroke, but data is under-reported in Malaysian population. Therefore, this study sought to investigate this association in a Malaysian population and in a comprehensive meta-analysis. Genotyping of the eNOS rs1799983 polymorphism was performed for 241 Malaysians using a hydrolysis probe. Odd ratio with 95% confidence interval was calculated. Meta-analysis was conducted using the Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software ver. 2.2.064. A p-value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Overall, our results showed that the presence of eNOS rs1799983-T allele increases the risk towards stroke, particularly in males, fast-food goers and Malaysian Chinese. The meta-analysis showed that the rs1799983 polymorphism is significantly associated with an increase ischemic stroke risk in the recessive and allelic models. After stratified with population, these associations remain significant in the Asian population but not in the Caucasian population. In summary, this study establishes a significant relationship between the eNOS rs1799983 polymorphism with gender, lifestyle and ethnicity differences towards stroke risk in the Malaysian population. In addition, our meta-analysis suggests that the eNOS rs1799983 polymorphism is associated with an increase risk of ischemic stroke.
