Abstract
ABSTRACT
Background
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased atherosclerotic burden and higher risk for cardiovascular events (CVE). Atherosclerosis has a significant genetic component and, in CKD, it is influenced by mineral metabolism alterations. Therefore, genetic modifications of mineral metabolism–related proteins could affect atherosclerosis in CKD patients. In the present study we investigated the role of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the matrix gamma-carboxy glutamic acid protein (MGP) on atherosclerosis progression and CVE in a CKD cohort.
Methods
A total of 2187 CKD patients from the Observatorio Nacional de Aterosclerosis en Nefrologia (NEFRONA) study were genotyped for SNPs present in the matrix gamma-carboxy glutamic acid (Gla) protein (MGP) gene. Atheromatosis was detected by vascular ultrasound. Progression of atheromatosis, defined as an increase in territories with plaque, was assessed after 24 months. Patients were followed for 48 months for CVE. Association of SNPs with plaque progression was assessed by logistic regression and their capacity to predict CVE by Cox regression.
Results
Three SNPs of the MGP gene were analyzed. No association of the rs4236 or the rs1800801 SNPs was detected with any of the outcomes. However, patients homozygotes for the minor allele of the rs1800802 SNP showed higher adjusted risk for plaque progression [odds ratio 2.3 (95% confidence interval 1.06–4.9)] and higher risk of suffering a CVE [hazard ratio 2.16 (95% confidence interval 1.13–4.12)] compared with the rest of genotypes. No association of the SNP with total or dp-ucMGP levels was found in a subsample.
Conclusions
The rs1800802 polymorphism of MGP is associated with plaque progression and CVE in CKD patients.
