Objective Given its effects on lipid metabolism, the apolipoprotein A1-C3-A5 ( APOA1-C3-A5) gene cluster is thought to play an important role in ischemic stroke pathogenesis. Here, we evaluated whether the APOA1-C3-A5 cluster is associated with ischemic stroke in the northern Chinese Han population. Methods This case-control study analyzed 812 patients with ischemic stroke and 844 healthy controls with regard to four APOA1-C3-A5 cluster promoter single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs670, rs2854116, rs2854117, and rs662799, using the SNaPshot Multiplex sequencing assay. Potential associations among ischemic stroke, genotyping, and allele frequencies were assessed. Results APOA1 rs670 CT/TT genotypes, APOA5 rs662799 AG/GG genotypes, and the APOC3 rs2854116 CC genotype were associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke according to multivariate logistic analysis after adjusting for confounding factors. A significantly increased risk for ischemic stroke was also identified among high-risk haplotypes (C-C-T-A and T-T-C-A) for rs670-rs2854116-rs2854117-rs662799. Conclusion This study showed that rs670, rs2854116, and rs662799 SNPs of the APOA1-C3-A5 cluster are associated with ischemic stroke in the northern Chinese Han population.
