Abstract

The aim of the study – to reveal the distribution of genotypes in the polymorphisms rs7240256, rs11665469, rs754505 of the NFATC1 gene and rs 2229309 of the NFATC4 gene in children with a bicuspid aortic valve of the heart (BAV) and other congenital heart defects (CHD) without cardiac valve anomalies.

Materials and Methods. Genotyping with determination of these polymorphisms in 39 children with diagnosed BAV, in 42 children with CHD without valve anomalies and 51 children in the control group was conducted. The distribution of genotypes was checked for compliance with the Hardy-Weinberg test using the χ 2 criterion.

Results and Discussion. In the polymorphism rs754505 of the NFATC1 gene the homozygous genotypes dominated in 90 % of cases (92.68 %, 90 % and 87.1 %, respectively, p > 0.05). In the distribution of the genotypes of polymorphism rs7240256 of the NFATC1 gene the prevalence of the homozygous TT genotype was observed in BAV patients as compared to CT (58.97 % and 28.20 %, respectively, p <0.05) and CC (58.97 % and 20.51 %, respectively, p <0.05). When the genotypes of the gene polymorphism rs11665469 of the NFATC1 gene were distributed, the homozygous genotypes dominated in children with BAV and CHD (76.85 % and 66.6 %, respectively, p <0.05), and the TT genotype predominated in patients with BAV against control (17.95 % and 1.96 % respectively, p <0.05), and the CHD (17.95 % and 4.76 % respectively, p <0.05). In the BAV group the Hardy-Weinberg test had the significant differences (χ2 = 12.91, p = 0.002). In the polymorphism rs2229309 of the NFATC4 gene in children with BAV the homozygous genotypes predominated due to an increase in the relative frequency of the GG genotype.

Conclusions. There was established a prevailing of homozygous genotype in rs7240256 and rs11665469 polymorphisms with prevailing of the TT genotype in children with BAV and prevailing of relative frequency of GG genotype in rs2229309 polymorphism of NFATC4 gene.
