Role of proteinase-activated receptor-1 gene polymorphisms in susceptibility to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Abstract: ABSTRACT. We conducted a case-control study to investigate the association between PAR1 gene polymorphisms and the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). A total of 270 patients with COPD and 270 control subjects were consecutively recruited between March 2012 and March 2014. A polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism assay was used to assess the polymorphisms PAR1 IVS-14 A/T rs168753 and -506 I/D rs11267092. The frequency of the AA genotype in PAR1 IVS-14 A/T rs… Show more

“…Previous family and twin studies have shown the role of genetic factors in COPD susceptibility [9]. Recently, some authors have used genetic polymorphisms to explain the genetic contribution to the development of COPD, and several candidate genes such as proteinase-activated receptor-1 [10], plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 [11], and β 2-adrenergic receptor [12] were reported to have an association with COPD susceptibility.…”

“…The relationship between the polymorphism of the gene encoding ACE and COPD has been addressed in numerous prior studies; however, these studies have yielded ambivalent results [43][44][45] . Prior studies have demonstrated the role of genetic factors in susceptibility to COPD; in part, susceptibility to COPD was found to be associated with polymorphism of proteinase-activated receptor-1 46 , plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 47 and β2-adrenergic receptors 48 . A study of relationship between COPD and ACE activity has shown the activity of ACE to depend on oxygen concentrations in the blood; therefore, increases in ACE levels due to COPD-associated hypoxia may cause severe tissue damage 49 .…”

“…Activated PARs mediate a number of pathophysiologic pathways involved in inflammatory and fibrotic diseases of different organs throughout the body, including the brain, lung, heart, liver, kidney, and gastrointestinal tract. For example, PAR-1 gene polymorphisms are associated with liver fibrosis [58], chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [59], and sarcoidosis [60], whereas PAR-1 expression is elevated during acute and chronic human liver injury [61]. Similarly, PAR-2 activation leads to increased TGF-b production and induces a profibrogenic phenotype in human hepatic stellate cells [62].…”
