Genetic Variants Of Cytochrome b-245, Alpha Polypeptide Gene And Premature Acute Myocardial Infarction Risk In An Iranian Population

Abstract: SummaryBackgroundOxidative stress induced by superoxide anion plays critical roles in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD) and hence acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The major source of superoxide production in vascular smooth muscle and endothelial cells is the NADPH oxidase complex. An essential component of this complex is p22phox, that is encoded by the cytochrome b-245, alpha polypeptide (CYBA) gene. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of CYBA variants (rs1049255 and rs… Show more

“…VEGF-A influences vascular proliferation and permeability, allowing the body to compensate for hypoxia and speed up inflammatory processes [ 60 ]. Cytochrome b-245 beta chain gene is part of cytochrome b-245, which is essential for microbicidal oxidase development in phagocytic cells that plays critical roles in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease [ 61 ]; it is also associated with ventricular hypertrophy and arrhythmia [ 62 ]. Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGS) is the key enzyme in prostaglandin biosynthesis, and the adverse effects of PTGS inhibitors on the cardiovascular system have been identified [ 63 ].…”

“…Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common cause of mortality and disability from incommunicable disease across the globe (1, 2, 3). The prevalence of CAD in the United States was one of every six deaths in 2010 (4) and it is estimated to be a factor in nearly 50% of all deaths each year in Iran (5).…”
