Single nucleotide polymorphisms in genes encoding inflammatory molecules may determine genetic profiles associated with increased risk of development and progression of cardiovascular diseases. In this study, we evaluated distribution and reciprocal interaction of a set of functionally important polymorphisms of genes encoding prototypical inflammatory molecules in subjects with peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) and critical limb ischemia (CLI). We also investigated whether synergistic interactions between these pro-inflammatory gene polymorphisms influence the risk of PAOD and CLI. DESIGN, SUBJECTS AND METHODS: In a genetic association study that included 157 PAOD patients and 206 controls, the following gene polymorphisms were analysed: C-reactive protein (CRP) 1059 G/C, interleukin-6 (IL-6)-174 G/C, macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF)-173 G/C, monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP-1) - 2518 A/G, E-selectin (E-Sel) Ser128Arg, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) 469 E/K, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1 -1607 1G/2G, MMP-3-1171 5A/6A and MMP-9-1563 C/T.
