The Interleukin 6 -572 G>C (rs1800796) Polymorphism Is Associated with the Risk of Developing Acute Coronary Syndrome

Abstract: the results suggest that IL-6 -572 G>C (rs1800796) polymorphism could be involved in the risk of developing ACS in Mexican individuals.

“…The IL-6 (-572 G>C, rs1800796) polymorphism is associated with the risk of developing acute coronary syndrome in the Mexican population. 54 In similar studies in the Netherlands and Germany, no relationship was found between this SNP and cardiovascular disease (in patients without other diseases). In patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 (with the GG genotype), there is a susceptibility to develop peripheral vascular disease of the arteries, which is accompanied with higher fibrinogen and CRP serum levels.…”

“…Sie et al (2006) argue that IL-6174 polymorphism is effective in transcribing the Interleukin-6 (IL-6) gene and, consequently, in the plasma level of IL-6 [21]. On the other hand, it is argued that there has been an association between the IL-6572 gene and the occurrence of atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, and MI [22].…”
