Abstract

Genome wide association study has identified rs7025486 G>A polymorphism within DAB2IP (Disabled homolog 2-interacting protein) gene with increased risk of coronary heart disease (CAD). In this study we have determined the frequency and association of rs7025486 with CAD in Indians. The study was performed on 214 patients with CAD and 125 controls. The ‘AA’ genotype was associated with an increased risk in the CAD age group <50 yrs as compared to CAD age group>50 yrs (OR 3.149; P 0.034) and controls >50 yrs (OR 3.430; P 0.080). The risk allele (A) was significantly associated with premature CAD.
