The review presents studies of the role of ABCG5/G8 polymorphisms in CVD and DM2. In several studies, including large–scale ones, the influence of ABCG5/G8 variants (rs4245791, rs41360247 rs4299376, rs11887534, rs7598542, rs78451356, etc.) on the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) was proved, in others – when confirming the association of the risk of CHD with ABCG5 polymorphism, this status for ABCG8 was denied. Since sterol metabolism disorders observed in individuals with DM2 are probably associated with low insulin sensitivity, many authors confirmed the association of variants rs4299376, rs4148211, rs140231607 and rs6720173 of the ABCG5/G8 with the risk of DM2, but some authors did not find such a connection with DM2 for variants rs4299376, rs11887534 and rs4148217 of the ABCG8. A decrease in ABCG5/G8 mRNA expression was observed in DM2 in experimental animals and in humans; on the contrary, overexpression of ABCG5/G8 in db/db mice restored the sensitivity of the liver to insulin, which led to a decrease in fasting glucose, lipids and improved glucose tolerance. The inconsistency of data on the association of ABCG5/G8 gene polymorphism with the risk of CVD and DM2 may probably be due to inter-population differences, which necessitates further study of the contribution of ABCG5/G8 variants to the risk of these diseases.","PeriodicalId":504796,"journal":{"name":"Ateroscleroz","volume":"2 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140239511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cardiovascular diseases (СVD) rank first in terms of morbidity and mortality not only in the Russian Federation but throughout the world. Since the end of 2019 a pandemic of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) or new coronavirus infection (NCI) has spread throughout the world, which contributed to the development and course of CVD. Therefore, genetic markers began to be considered as factors potentially influencing CVD, its development and severity. Objective: To evaluate the association of the nucleotide sequence variant rs12329760 of the TMPRSS2 gene with acute coronary syndrome in patients who have had a new coronavirus infection.Material and methods. The study included 100 patients (women – 50, men – 50) with ACS and previous NCI, who were selected on the basis of a positive PCR test for the presence of SARS-CoV-2 in the anamnesis, hospitalized at the regional vascular center No. 7 of the City Clinical Hospital No. 2 of the city of Novosibirsk. Women age was 59.5 ± 7.2 years, men age was 53.5 ± 9.3 years. The diagnosis of ACS was established according to a set of criteria proposed and established by the Russian Society of Cardiology and in accordance with the updated clinical recommendations of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation of 2020. Patients underwent clinical and instrumental examination, coronary angiography with possible stenting, as provided for in the standards of medical care and clinical guidelines. The nucleotide sequence variant rs12329760 of the TMPSS2 gene was determined in patients using PCR with further analysis of restriction fragment length polymorphism. The comparison group consisted of 200 patients with ACS without previous NCI (no positive PCR test, no positive antibodies).Results. Carriage of CC, СТ, TT, genotype variants of the nucleotide sequence rs12329760 of the TMPSS2 gene are not associated with an increased risk of developing ACS in patients with previous NCI. When comparing the frequencies of the rs12329760 genotypes of the TMPSS2 gene in groups with ACS with NCI and ACS without NCI, no statistically significant differences were obtained. In the group with ACS with NCI, carriage of the homozygous genotype was more common (p = 0.011).Conclusions. Variants of the nucleotide sequence rs12329760 of the TMPSS2 gene are  not associated with  ACS with previous  NCI.","PeriodicalId":504796,"journal":{"name":"Ateroscleroz","volume":"87 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140239669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study of the composition of FAs of erythrocyte membranes was carried out using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry – a system based on three quadrupoles Agilent 7000B (USA).Results. Patients with FLD of mixed genesis had higher level of palmitoleic (p = 0.03), pentadecanoic (p = 0.05), omega-6 to omega-3 polyunsaturated fatter acids (PUFA) ratio (p = 0.03) and, conversely, lower level of docosahexaenoic (p = 0.0002), total content of eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic FA (p = 0.0007), of all omega-3 PUFA (p = 0.001) in the membranes of erythrocytes compared to healthy persons. There are trends towards a decrease in the content of omega-3 eicosapentaenoic acid and an increase in the ratio of SFA/PUFA in patients with fibroids of mixed genesis in contrast to healthy individuals. The level of individual FA provided high diagnostic accuracy in differentiating patients with FLD of mixed genesis from healthy individuals: palmitoleic (9-C16:1) (area under ROC (AUC) 0.702, sensitivity 66.7 %, specificity 69.6 %), docosahexaenoic (C22:6n-3) (AUC 0.795, sensitivity 77.3 %, specificity 78.3 %), as well as the total content of eicosapentaenoic and docosegexaenoic FA (C20:5n-3 + C22:6n-3) (AUC 0.777, sensitivity 70.1 %, specificity 82.6 %).Conclusions.

During 6-month follow-up, men and women with MI were comparable in mortality rates, however, men were more frequently hospitalized for cardiovascular complications. Adherence to treatment was high in both genders. Treatment readiness at the time of MI indicated higher satisfaction with the results of treatment in women, and higher willingness to pay for treatment, higher confidence in the treatment strategy and a higher IIAT in men. Both women and men with MI reported a comparable number of outpatient visits within 6 months (not exceeding 56 %). Only small number of patients reached the target heart rate (HR) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) content within 6 months. Patients of both genders who reached and not reached the target LDL level and HR did not differ in mortality rates, hospitalizations and adherence to treatment within 6 months. At the same time, patients who reached the target HR, regardless of gender, were more likely to make outpatient postMI visits compared with those who did not reach the targets; men with MI who did not achieve the target HR were less likely to visit a doctor, whereas women with MI who achieved the target HR and LDL were more likely to have a high IIAT during in-patient care and were more willing to pay for further treatment (an exclusive characteristic of women who reached target HR). Moreover, we have identified predictors of IIAT and achievement of HR and LDL in women and men with MI.Conclusions.

Their pathogenesis is associated with endothelial dysfunction. Determining the processes of the formation and progression of retinopathy (RP) will bring closer the solution of problematic issues in ophthalmology and cardiology, and reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.Aim. To study the processes of formation and progression of retinopathy in the initial stages of mixed origin (hypertensive, diabetic, unspecified etiology).Material and methods. The origin and progression of I–II degree RP under the influence of predictors of this symptom has been revealed through statistical analysis using the data of the 2008–2013 prospective follow-up of 22 clinical indicators of a natural group of initially healthy 7.959 male workers of locomotive crews of the Trans-Baikal Railway aged 18–66 years. Multivariate stepwise analysis, a 2 × 2 confusion matrix, Cox and Kaplan-Meier proportional hazard models were used, and a relative risk was assessed.Results. Such predictors of grade I–II RP as arterial hypertension, I–III degree obesity, smoking, dyslipidemia, left ventricular hypertrophy, family history of early cardiovascular disease, hyperglycemia, aortic atherosclerosis, creatininemia, atherosclerotic plaque / intima-media complex thickening, microalbuminuria, type 2 diabetes mellitus and age showed statistical heterogeneity in mathematical models. The distinctive feature was the different mutually exclusive assessment of the predictors’ significance in the models used. Thus, the predictors of I–II degree RP showed their specific identification characteristics, defined in qualitative and quantitative dimensions, by which they could be found and studied in the cell as well as their damaging effect.Conclusions. The course of endothelial dysfunction varies significantly when influenced by RP predictors. Its manifestations are determined by the influence of a specific factor, a set of factors or by all predictors taken together and involved simultaneously. This shows the need to determine the qualitative and quantitative ultrastructural and biochemical specific markers of endothelial dysfunction of the microvasculature of the eye appearing under the influence of RP predictors during the formation and progression of this pathological symptom in order to restore the normal function of the endothelial cell and the affected organ as a whole, as long as there is still room for therapeutic efforts.","PeriodicalId":504796,"journal":{"name":"Ateroscleroz","volume":"560 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139177468","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
