Mutation in the ESR1 (PvuII) was more prevalent in the controls (18 vs. 11%; p=0.062) than in CAD patients, and the mutation identified by the XbaI enzyme in the same receptor was associated with reduced apolipoprotein B levels and low body mass index.
Meta-analysis of the association of the rs2234693 and rs9340799 polymorphisms of estrogen receptor alpha gene with coronary heart disease risk in Chinese Han population.
Effect of hormone replacement therapy on plasma lipoproteins and apolipoproteins, endothelial function and myocardial perfusion in postmenopausal women with estrogen receptor-alpha IVS1-397 C/C genotype and established coronary artery disease.
This study seeks to investigate the association between the ESR1 haplotype created by the c.454-397 T>C and c.454-351 A>G polymorphisms, the length of the (TA)n repeats, and the angiographic extent of CAD.
Despite the widespread expression of ERα in vascular tissues, we found no evidence for involvement of common or low-frequency genetic variation throughout the ESR1 gene in modifying risk of CAD, either in the general population or as a function of sex.
The estrogen receptor-1 (ESR1, c.454-397T>C) CC variant genotype is associated with the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) and an increased risk of myocardial infarction in men.
We conclude that -1989T/G or its linked polymorphisms in the ER-alpha gene may confer risk for CAD and that the G/G genotype may be an independent predictor for CAD in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia.
After adjusting for CAD and age, no impacts of ESR1 PvuII and XbaI polymorphisms were found on lipid profile, lipoprotein (a) level, and quantitative CRP either in total population or in subgroups stratified by gender.
This study seeks to investigate the association between the ESR1 haplotype created by the c.454-397 T>C and c.454-351 A>G polymorphisms, the length of the (TA)n repeats, and the angiographic extent of CAD.
We have previously reported significant association of ER alpha gene (ESR1) variants with more severe coronary artery disease (CAD) in postmenopausal women.
Estrogen receptor alpha (ESR1) gene variation is associated with a range of important estrogen-dependent characteristics, including responses of lipid profile and atherosclerotic severity to hormone replacement therapy, coronary heart disease risk, and migraine.
Qualitative assessment of previous evidence and an updated meta-analysis confirms lack of association between the ESR1rs2234693 (PvuII) variant and coronary heart disease in men and women.
