Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Pathway Gene Polymorphism Associated With Extent of Coronary Artery Disease in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes in the Bypass Angioplasty Revascularization Investigation 2 Diabetes Trial

Abstract: Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the major cause of death in patients with type 2 diabetes (DM). While demographic and clinical factors associated with extent of CAD in patients with DM have been described, genetic factors have not. We hypothesized that genetic variation in peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-pathway genes, important in DM and atherosclerosis, would be associated with extent of CAD in patients with DM. Methods and Results 1,043 patients (702 Caucasian; 175 African-Am… Show more

“…We further assessed the issue of population stratification using a subgroup of 492 TRIUMPH subjects (382 Caucasian; 110 African American) who were genotyped as part of a separate project with a custom array containing 3,351 SNPs and 100 ancestry informative markers (27, 28). Using these SNPs, we estimated 10 principal components with Eigenstrat and repeated our analyses in this subgroup to assess whether population stratification impacted our findings.…”

“…We noted that the cancer concept was also closely related to that of genetics. We found here that the use of the keyword "pathway" highlighted all articles pertaining to cell signalling or gene pathways [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29].…”

“…[2] Between April 11, 2005, and December 31, 2008, 4340 patients with AMI, from 24 U.S. hospitals were prospectively enrolled into the TRIUMPH observational cohort study, as previously described. [2, 10, 19] AMI patients were identified by an elevated troponin blood test and either diagnostic electrocardiogram (EKG) changes or ischemic symptoms. 2979 TRIUMPH patients consented to genetic testing.…”
