Aim: The aim of this study was to assess whether rs1333049 was associated with coronary heart disease (CHD) in Han Chinese.
Methods: This case-control study was involved with 599 CHD patients and 591 non-CHD controls. Meanwhile, a comprehensive meta-analysis was also conducted to establish the contribution of rs1333049 to CHD.
Results: Our results showed that rs1333049 increased the risk of CHD by 38% (OR=1.38, 95% CI=1.18-1.62). A breakdown analysis by gender further indicated that rs1333049 increased the risk of CHD in men by 29% (OR=1.29, 95% CI=1.05-1.58) and in women by 64% (OR=1.64, 95% CI=1.25-2.16). A follow-up subgroup analysis by age showed there was a significant association between rs1333049 and CHD in women younger than 65 (≤55 years: p=0.001, 55-65 years: p=0.008) and in men aged between 55 and 65 years (p=0.005). Our meta-analysis was involved with 21 studies (25 stages) among 20969 cases and 34114 controls. Our results showed that rs1333049 led to a significantly increased risk of CHD (OR=1.30, 95% CI=1.21-1.39). Further subgroup analyses by ethnicity showed rs1333049 increased the CHD risk by 30% in Europeans (OR=1.30, 95% CI=1.16-1.47) and 27% in Asians (OR=1.27, 95% CI=1.22-1.33).
Conclusions: Our case-control study and meta-analysis suggest that rs1333049 is a useful risk marker of CHD.

Several studies have reported an association between the 9p21 region in the human genome and atherosclerosis. The rs1333049 polymorphism is a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in CDKN2B-AS1, located in the 9p21 region. The aim of our study was to investigate the association between the rs1333049 polymorphism and advanced carotid atherosclerosis, as well as its effect on CDKN2B expression in endarterectomy sequesters.

The world population is genetically predisposed to metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components, also known as cardiometabolic risk phenotypes, which can cause severe health complications including coronary heart disease (CHD). Genetic variants in the 9p21 locus have been associated with CHD in a number of populations including Pakistan. However, the role of the 9p21 locus in MetS and cardiometabolic risk phenotypes (such as obesity, hypertension, hyperglycemia, and dyslipidemia) in populations with CHD or no established CHD has not been explored.

Background: Several 9p21.3 variants, such as rs1333049, rs4977574, rs10757274, rs10757278, and rs10811661, identified from recent genome-wide association studies (GWASs) are reported to be associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) susceptibility but independent of dyslipidemia. This study investigated whether these 9p21.

Objective: Genetic variants of PON1, rs70587, rs662, rs854560, GSTM1, and GSTT1 and two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) at 9p21.3 locus, rs1333049, and rs2383207; were evaluated in association with the risk for premature coronary artery disease (CAD) in a population of Yucatan, Mexico. These genes are involved in the inactivation of pro-oxidants and pro-inflammatory mediators, lipid and xenobiotic metabolism, detoxification of reactive oxygen species, and regulation of cellular proliferation playing key roles in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis.

Background: The main objective of this study is sought to determine the impacts of PCSK9, WDR12, CDKN2A, and CXCL12 polymorphisms on warfarin sensitivity and responsiveness in Jordanian cardiovascular patients during the initiation and stabilization phases of therapy.
Methods: This study took place at the anticoagulation clinic at Queen Alia Heart Institute (QAHI) in Jordan. DNA samples were collected from 212 cardiovascular patients and 213 healthy controls.
