These SNPs were also studied for possible associations with circulating lipid levels in supposedly healthy European individuals and in a limited number of Iranian individuals with metabolic syndrome. To go further, the association of those four SNPs with plasma lipid parameters, hypercholesterolemia and metabolic syndrome (MetS) was assessed.Materials and methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted on 460 individuals chosen from the general population. Demographic and clinical data were collected and DNA was extracted and genotyped using Kompetitive allele specific PCR (KASP™). A meta-analysis followed, combining our participants with the Iranian individuals (n = 336).ResultsWhereas rs10738760 was associated with total cholesterol (Tchol) (p = 0.01), rs6993770 showed significant associations with both Tchol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels (p = 0.007 and p = 0.01 respectively). Using a multivariate logistic regression model adjusted for different confounding factors, we found that rs6993770 was associated with hypercholesterolemia, specifically high Tchol (p = 0.01) and LDL-C levels (p = 0.01). Furthermore, rs10738760 was positively associated with the risk of MetS in these individuals (p = 0.02) and in the meta-analysis (OR = 1.67, p = 0.01).ConclusionOur results suggest that whereas rs6993770 in ZFPM2 was positively associated with hypercholesterolemia, rs10738760 (VLDLR-KCNV2) has a possible implication in MetS in two Middle Eastern populations."xsd:string |
