ABSTRACT
Recent prospective analysis identified secretory phospholipase A(2)-IIa (sPLA(2)IIa) as a coronary artery disease (CAD) risk predictor. This study aimed to examine the relationship between serum levels of sPLA(2)IIa and variation in the sPLA(2)IIa gene (PLA2G2A) in a cohort of patients with Type II diabetes (T2D) mellitus. Six tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (tSNPs) accounting for > 92% of the genetic variability in PLA2G2A were identified and distinguished six common haplotypes (frequencies > 5%). In the 523 Caucasian T2D patients, levels of sPLA(2)IIa, independent of CRP, were negatively correlated with total antioxidant status (P = 0.003) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (P = 0.006) in men and correlated with CAD status in women (P = 0.002) (Odds ratio of top two tertiles versus bottom = 2.50) [95% CI (1.13-5.53) P = 0.024]. Overall, tSNP haplotypes showed a highly significant association with sPLA(2)IIa levels (P < 0.0001), explaining 6.3% of the variance. The most common haplotype (frequency 14.2%) was associated with 53% higher sPLA(2)IIa levels [3.25 ng/ml (+/- 0.14)] compared with the combined other haplotypes [2.13 ng/ml (+/- 0.09), P < 0.00001]. Five of the six tSNPs were associated with significant effects on sPLA(2)IIa levels but the raising haplotype could not be distinguished by a single tSNP and none are likely to be functional. These data confirm the relationship between elevated sPLA(2)IIa levels and CAD risk reported in both cases control and prospective analyses. The strong impact of PLA2G2A haplotypic variation on sPLA(2)IIa levels will help clarify the causality of this association.
