Abstract: Abstract: Objective To investigate the relationship between PCSK9 gene polymorphism with lipid metabolism and CHD risk among population within Tianjin, China. Methods Patients from Tianjin Chest Hospital were selected (n=778) and divided into coronary heart disease (CHD) group (n=502) and control group (n=276). Immediately after admission, tri⁃ glyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein (LDL-C), apolipoprotein A (ApoA1) and apolipo⁃ protein B (ApoB) were tested and genotype TT,TC and CC were determined. Results In CHD group, LDL-C level is higher in TC genotype individuals than that in TT genotype individuals with statistical significance (P<0.05). CHD group and the control group were dominated by TT genotype with no statistical difference between their allele frequency distribution nor genotype frequency distribution(P > 0.05). The total population allele frequencies were T 96.1% (1 495/1 556), C 3.9% (61/ 1 556); genotype frequencies were TT 92.2% (717/778), TC 7.8% (61/778). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that ApoA1 and HDL-C were inversely associated with coronary heart disease, therefore are protective factors for coronary heart disease. Conclusion The study found that TC genotype is correlated with serum LDL-C increase in group CHD, and the incidence of allele C showed no obvious connection with CHD.
