Association Between Polymorphism in the Chemokine Receptor CX3CR1 and Coronary Vascular Endothelial Dysfunction and Atherosclerosis
Open accessAbstract
Fractalkine, a chemokine expressed by inflamed endothelium, induces leukocyte adhesion and migration via the receptor CX3CR1, and the CX3CR1 polymorphism V249I affects receptor expression and function. Here we show that this polymorphism is an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (CAD). Genotyping of the CX3CR1-V249I polymorphism was performed in a cohort of 339 white individuals who underwent cardiac catheterization (n=197 with and n=142 without CAD, respectively). In 203 patients, intracoronary acetylcholine 15 μg/min) and sodium nitroprusside (20 μg/min) were administered to test endothelium-dependent and -independent coronary vascular function, respectively. Change in coronary vascular resistance (ΔCVR) was measured as an index of microvascular dilation. An association was observed between presence of the CX3CR1 I249 allele and reduced prevalence of CAD, independent of established CAD risk factors (odds ratio=0.54 [95% confidence interval, 0.30 to 0.96],P=0.03). Angiographic severity of CAD was also lower in these subjects (P=0.01). Furthermore, endothelium-dependent vasodilation was greater in these individuals compared with individuals homozygous for the CX3CR1-V249 allele (ΔCVR during acetylcholine = −46±3% versus −36±3%, respectively,P=0.02), whereas ΔCVR with sodium nitroprusside was similar in both groups (−55±2% versus −53±2%,P=0.45). The association between CX3CR1 genotype and endothelial function was independent of established risk factors and presence of CAD by multivariate analysis (P=0.02). Thus, the CX3CR1 I249 allele is associated with decreased risk of CAD and improved endothelium-dependent vasodilation. This suggests that CX3CR1 may be involved in the pathogenesis of CAD.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
