Abstract:
Aim: To analyze the association between in-stent restenosis (ISR) and polymorphisms in genes coding IGF-1, IGFBP3, ITGB3 and GLUT1, which play an important role in the smooth muscle cell proliferation and extracellular matrix synthesis – the main components of neointima. Materials & methods: We analyzed 265 patients who underwent bare metal stent implantation. Results: The differences in the occurrence of ISR between genotypes of the analyzed polymorphisms in the IGF-1, IGFBP3 and ITGB3 were not statistically significant. The T/T genotype of the rs710218 polymorphism in the GLUT1 (SLC2A1) gene was more common in the ISR group compared with non-ISR patients (81.1 vs 64.8%; p = 0.02). In a multivariable model the A/A and A/T genotype remained correlated with lower occurrence of ISR (odds ratio: 0.45; 95% CI: 0.21–0.97; p = 0.03). Conclusion: The rs710218 polymorphism in the gene coding GLUT1 protein is a novel risk factor for ISR.
