The genetic variation rs12143842 in NOS1AP increases idiopathic ventricular tachycardia risk in Chinese Han populations

Abstract Genome-wide association studies identified that the common T of rs12143842 in NOS1AP is associated with a QT/QTc interval in European populations. In this study, we test the association between the variation rs12143842 in NOS1AP and idiopathic ventricular tachycardia (IVT). A case-control a...

Sumario:Abstract Genome-wide association studies identified that the common T of rs12143842 in NOS1AP is associated with a QT/QTc interval in European populations. In this study, we test the association between the variation rs12143842 in NOS1AP and idiopathic ventricular tachycardia (IVT). A case-control association study examining rs12143842 was performed in two independent cohorts. The Northern cohort enrolled 277 IVT patients and 728 controls from a Chinese Gene ID population. The Central cohort enrolled 301 IVT patients and 803 matched controls. Genotyping was performed using high-resolution melt analysis. The minor T allele of the rs12143842 SNP was significantly associated with decreased IVT risk in the Northern cohort (adjusted P = 0.024, OR 0.71(0.52~0.96)), and this association was replicated in an independent Central Gene ID cohort (adjusted P = 0.029, OR 0.78 (0.62~0.97)). The association was more significant in the combined population (adjusted P = 0.001, OR 0.76 (0.64~0.90)). The P values for the genotypic association were significant for the dominant (P < 0.001) and additive (P = 0.001) models. The minor T allele for the SNP rs12143842 in NOS1AP is significantly associated with IVT. NOS1AP might be a novel gene affecting IVT, and further functional studies should be performed.
