1 An intronic DHCR7 genetic polymorphism associates with vitamin D serum level and incidence of acute coronary syndrome. Vitamin D 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase Homo sapiens
2 AIM: This study aims to correlate two polymorphisms in the DHCR7/NADSYN1 genetic locus with levels of circulatory vitamin D and the presentation of ACS in an Egyptian population. Vitamin D 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase Homo sapiens
3 Allele A of the DHCR7 polymorphism was found to correlate with serum vitamin D deficiency and incidence of ACS classes: NSTEMI, STEMI and unstable angina, when compared to allele G. On the other hand, the NADSYN1 polymorphism rs2276360 correlated with serum 25(OH)D3 deficiency. Vitamin D 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase Homo sapiens
4 CONCLUSION: We conclude that rs11606033, which is an intronic SNP between exon 4 and exon 5 of the DHCR7 gene, influences vitamin D serum abundance and more importantly ACS incidence. Vitamin D 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase Homo sapiens
