▶Genetic variants associated with celiac disease and the risk for coronary artery diseaseMeta-analysisN=86,995Henning Jansen et al.(2015)· Molecular Genetics and Genomics
This meta-analysis of 22,233 CAD cases and 64,762 controls tested 41 celiac disease-associated SNPs for association with coronary artery disease (CAD). While 58.5% of celiac disease risk alleles showed positive association with CAD (OR 1.001-1.081), this was not significantly different from the 50% expected by chance (p=0.069). Only rs653178 at the SH2B3/ATXN2 locus achieved study-wide statistical significance (OR 1.081, p=2.2×10⁻⁶), likely through pleiotropic effects. The findings provide no convincing evidence that genetic variants associated with celiac disease contribute to CAD risk.
About ELMO1
This gene encodes a member of the engulfment and cell motility protein family. These proteins interact with dedicator of cytokinesis proteins to promote phagocytosis and cell migration. Increased expression of this gene and dedicator of cytokinesis 1 may promote glioma cell invasion, and single nucleotide polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with diabetic nephropathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]
