Association of Polymorphism in SCN5A, GJA5, and KCNN3 Gene with Sudden Cardiac Death
We studied association of single-nucleotide SCN5A ( rs1805124 ), GJA5 ( rs35594137 ), and KCNN3 ( rs13376333 ) polymorphisms and sudden cardiac death. Humans died suddenly from cardiac causes ( N =379) and unrelated sex- and age-matched control subjects were genotyped. No significant intergroup diff...

Summary: | We studied association of single-nucleotide
SCN5A
(
rs1805124
),
GJA5
(
rs35594137
), and
KCNN3
(
rs13376333
) polymorphisms and sudden cardiac death. Humans died suddenly from cardiac causes (
N
=379) and unrelated sex- and age-matched control subjects were genotyped. No significant intergroup differences were found in the frequency of
rs1805124
and
rs13376333
genotypes and alleles
.
In women under 50 years, enhanced risk of sudden cardiac death was associated with
rs35594137
GG genotype (OR=3.6; 95%CI=1.2-10.4;
p
=0.022), while in older women it was associated with
rs35594137 AA
genotype (OR=3.0; 95%CI=2.3-3.9;
p
=0.041). In women under 50 years,
GA rs35594137
genotype was associated with a protective effect against sudden cardiac death (OR=0.3; 95%CI=0.1-0.8;
p
=0.036). Thus,
GJA5
gene
rs35594137
polymorphism is significantly associated with sudden cardiac death in the examined group. |
