The C825T polymorphism in the gene encoding the G protein beta 3 subunit (GNB3) causes enhanced G protein activation and the increased in vitro cell proliferation. We investigated the association of gene GNB3 C825T polymorphism with coronary artery disease (CAD) in the Russian population. A total of 313 patients with CAD diagnosed on the basis of clinical studies and coronary angyography were examined. The control group included 132 individuals that lacked clinical CAD symptoms and had matching profile of coronary artery disease risk factors. Blood pressure was measured using standard protocols. Increased levels of diastolic and systolic pressure was observed in both groups. The allele and genotype frequencies of this polimorphic marker were significantly higher in the CAD patients than in control. We found that the frequency of allele C and gen-. otype CC was significantly higher in the CAD patients (OR = 1.55; P = 0.0079; OR = 1.63; P = 0.0215, respectively), which suggests higher risk of this pathology in carriers of allele C and genotype CC. Thus, in the Russian population coronary artery disease is associated with GNB3 allele C and genotype CC.

Background And Aim: Herbal products are widely used to treat patients with disorders of gut brain interaction but clinical efficacy and safety data for treatments lasting >4 weeks are widely lacking. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of 8 weeks of treatment with the herbal combination product STW 5-II for patients with functional dyspepsia (FD) meeting Rome II criteria. We also conducted a post hoc analysis including patients meeting Rome IV criteria for FD and evaluated the effect of the G-protein beta 3 (GNB3) subunit polymorphism (C825T) on therapeutic response.

Introduction: Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a potentially life-threatening pregnancy-related heart disease. Genetic roles such as gene polymorphisms may relate to the etiology of PPCM. This study analyzes the association between single nucleotide gene polymorphism (SNP) guanine nucleotide-binding protein beta-3 subunit () C825T and insertion/deletion (I/D) of the angiotensin-converting enzyme () gene with the incidence of PPCM.

Objective: Introduction: All components of the metabolic syndrome (MS) are the risk factors for the cardiovascular diseases, and their combination a great deal accelerates and complicates development of the diseases. Phenotypic expression of MS depends on the interaction of genetic and environmental factors. The aim: The aim is to study the association of metabolic syndrome components with the genotypes of the C825T polymorphism in the GNB3 gene, which allows predicting the risks and determining individual lifestyle and treatment program for the future.
