摘要:

目的 探讨中国人群外周血肿瘤抑制可转移候选基因1(TSSC1)和黑素亲和素(MLPH)基因甲基化水平与冠心病(CHD)之间的关系。 方法 收集86例CHD患者和95例健康对照,使用定量质谱法检测TSSC1MLPH基因的CpG位点甲基化水平。使用Mann-Whitney秩和检验比较不同临床特征组间的甲基化水平差异。通过Spearman相关系数和列联系数分别评估甲基化水平与年龄、性别之间的相关性。 结果 与对照组相比,MLPH基因高甲基化与心肌梗死亚型相关(MLPH_CpG_2.7:P=0.045;MLPH_CpG_3/cg06639874:P=0.049;MLPH_CpG_5:P=0.019)。MLPH基因高甲基化与CHD的相关性在年龄<65岁组(MLPH_CpG_2.7:P=0.014;MLPH_CpG_4:P=0.001)和男性(MLPH_CpG_2.7:P=0.004;MLPH_CpG_3/cg06639874:P=0.044)中更加明显。未观察到外周血TSSC1基因甲基化改变与CHD及其亚型的相关性。 结论 中国人群外周血中MLPH基因高甲基化与CHD及心肌梗死具有相关性,尤其是65岁以下群体和男性群体。

Abstract:

Objective To investigate the association between methylation levels of tumor suppressing subtransferable candidate 1 (TSSC1) and melanophilin (MLPH) genes in peripheral blood and coronary heart disease (CHD) in Chinese population. Methods This case-control study was conducted in 86 CHD patients and 95 healthy individuals, whose methylation levels of TSSC1 and MLPH genes in peripheral blood were determined using mass spectrometry. Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the methylation levels in different subgroups. The correlation of TSSC1 and MLPH gene methylation levels with age and gender were evaluated using Spearman correlation coefficient and contingency coefficient, respectively. Results Compared with the healthy individuals, the CHD patients showed a significant correlation between MLPH hypermethylation and myocardial infarction (MI) (MLPH_CpG_2.7: P=0.045; MLPH_CpG_3/cg06639874: P=0.049; MLPH_CpG_5: P=0.019), and this correlation was even stronger in individuals below 65 years of age (MLPH_CpG_2.7: P=0.014; MLPH_CpG_4: P=0.001) and in male subjects (MLPH_CpG_2.7: P=0.004; MLPH_CpG_3/cg06639874: P=0.044). The methylation level of TSSC1 gene in peripheral blood was not found to correlate with CHD or its subtypes. Conclusion Our findings suggest a correlation of MLPH hypermethylation in peripheral blood with CHD and MI in Chinese population, especially in individuals below 65 years and in male individuals.
