Abstract
Several studies have reported the role of hedgehog interacting protein-like 1 (HHIPL-1) in different pathologies, including cardiovascular disease. The aim of the present study was to analyze the association of HHIPL-1 (rs2895811) polymorphism with myocardial infarction (MI), cardiometabolic parameters, and traditional cardiovascular risk factors in the Mexican population. The polymorphism was genotyped using a TaqMan assay in 1023 patients with MI and 1105 controls. A similar distribution of the polymorphism was observed between studied groups. However, in patients group, the C allele was associated with a decreased risk of developing hypertriglyceridemia (ORâ¯=â¯0.757, Padditiveâ¯=â¯0.030, ORâ¯=â¯0.685, Pdominantâ¯=â¯0.020, ORâ¯=â¯0.691, Pcodominant1â¯=â¯0.030), metabolic syndrome (ORâ¯=â¯0.746, Padditiveâ¯=â¯0.030, ORâ¯=â¯0.647, Pdominantâ¯=â¯0.005, ORâ¯=â¯0.670, Pheterozygoteâ¯=â¯0.015, ORâ¯=â¯0.637, Pcodominant1â¯=â¯0.005), and insulin resistance (ORâ¯=â¯0.681, Pdominantâ¯=â¯0.045). The results suggest that HHIPL-1 rs2895811 polymorphism is associated with cardiometabolic parameters in Mexican patients with MI.
