520 |a <p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The goal of the present study was to assess the effect of genetic variability at the APOA5/A4/C3/A1 cluster locus on the risk of metabolic syndrome.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>The <it>APOA5 </it>Ser19Trp, <it>APOA5 </it>-12,238T>C, <it>APOA4 </it>Thr347Ser, <it>APOC3 </it>-482C>T and <it>APOC3 </it>3238C>G (<it>Sst</it>I) polymorphisms were analyzed in a representative population sample of 3138 men and women from France, including 932 individuals with metabolic syndrome and 2206 without metabolic syndrome, as defined by the NCEP criteria.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>Compared with homozygotes for the common allele, the odds ratio (OR) [95% CI] for metabolic syndrome was 1.30 [1.03-1.66] (<it>p </it>= 0.03) for <it>APOA5 </it>Trp19 carriers, 0.81 [0.69-0.95] (<it>p </it>= 0.01) for <it>APOA5 </it>-12,238C carriers and 0.84 [0.70-0.99] (<it>p </it>= 0.04) for <it>APOA4 </it>Ser347 carriers. Adjustment for plasma triglycerides, (but not for waist girth, HDL, blood pressure or glycemia - the other components of metabolic syndrome) abolished these associations and suggests that triglyceride levels explain the association with metabolic syndrome. There was no association between the <it>APOC3 </it>-482C>T or <it>APOC3 </it>3238C>G polymorphisms and metabolic syndrome. The decreased risk of metabolic syndrome observed in <it>APOA5 </it>-12,238C and <it>APOA4 </it>Ser347 carriers merely reflected the fact that the <it>APOA5 </it>Trp19 allele was in negative linkage disequilibrium with the common alleles of <it>APOA5 </it>-12,238T>C and <it>APOA4 </it>Thr347Ser polymorphisms.</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>The <it>APOA5 </it>Trp19 allele increased susceptibility to metabolic syndrome via its impact on plasma triglyceride levels.</p>
