, , and SNPs, Gene-Gene and Gene-Environment Interactions on Coronary Artery Disease and Ischemic Stroke

The associations among the EH domain-binding protein 1 (), tubulin beta class I (), and WW domain-containing oxidoreductase () single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and coronary artery disease (CAD) and ischemic stroke (IS) are not yet understood. This study aimed to detect the associations of these SNPs, gene-gene and gene-environment interactions and CAD and IS in the Guangxi Han population. A total of 1853 unrelated subjects were recruited into normal control ( = 638), CAD ( = 622), and IS ( = 593) groups. Related genotypes were determined by high-throughput sequencing. The genotypic and minor allelic frequencies of rs2278075 were different between the CAD and control groups, and those of rs2710642, rs3130685, and rs2278075 were also different between the IS and control groups. The rs2278075T allele, rs3130685-rs2222896-rs2278075, rs3130685-rs2222896-diabetes, rs3130685-rs2222896-drinking, and haplotype rs2710642A-rs10496099C-diabetes interactions were associated with increased risk, while G-T-G-C-G-A and G-T-T-T-G-T-drinking were associated with reduced risk of CAD. The rs2278075T and rs2710642G alleles, rs2710642G-rs10496099C haplotype, rs3130685-rs2278075-rs2222896, and rs2710642-rs2278075-hypertension interactions aggravated the association with IS, whereas the rs3130685T allele, rs2710642A-rs10496099C haplotype and the interactions of H1 (s2710642A-rs10496099C)-H2 (rs2710642G-rs10496099C)-drinking and I1 (A-C-G-C-A-A)-I3 (A-C-G-T-A-A)-I4 (A-C-G-T-G-A)-I5 (G-T-G-C-G-A) diminished the association with IS. Carrying rs2278075T was strongly associated with CAD or IS, while rs2710642 and rs3130685 might alter the association of IS by modifying the serum lipid profile. This study demonstrates that the , , and SNPs, gene-gene and gene-environment interactions are associated with the risk of CAD and IS in the Guangxi Han population.
