Atherogenesis is mainly determined by endothelial dysfunction, lipid metabolism disorders and inflammation. The atherogenesis-related inflammatory process is a complex interaction between serum blood lipoproteins, inflammatory cells, endothelial and smooth muscle cells and extracellular matrix; the role of chronic inflammation in atherogenesis was proposed. A pathogenetic role of polymorphism in NF-kB pathway genes in coronary artery disease and associated pathological conditions has been suggested in a case-control retrospective study. 260 coronary artery disease patients permanently living in a large industrial region of Russian Federation (Kemerovo region) were recruited in the study. We examined nine single nucleotide polymorphisms in IL18, IL18R1 and IL18RAP genes by polymerize chain reaction; and serum blood level of IL18 by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Polymorphic variants rs13015714 (IL18R1) and rs917997 (IL18RAP) are associated with the risk of myocardial infarction and high serum levels of IL18. Minor alleles of rs13015714 and rs917997 sites are associated with high risk of developing multifocal atherosclerosis and arterial hypertension in patients with stable coronary artery disease after myocardial infarction. Thus, polymorphism in the genes of IL18 receptor is determine the IL18 contents and important in the development of coronary atherosclerosis, associated pathological conditions and the risk of acute coronary events; prospective monitoring of patients with early clinical signs of adverse events is required to confirm the role of IL18, IL18R1, and IL18RAP genes polymorphism in atherogenesis.
