Abstract

Objects: to survey the genotype and allele proportion of AGT M235T gene polymorphism in patients with acute myocardial (AMI). Subjects and methods: This was a cross-sectional and descriptive study in patients with AMI at the Department of Cardiology and Department of Invasive Cardiology, Cho Ray Hospital from January 2020 to June 2020. AGT M235T gene polymorphism was determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) at the Center for Molecular Biomedicine, University of Medicine and Pharmacy at Ho Chi Minh City. Results: During the study period, 120 patients with AMI had a mean age of 64.5±11.5 years and 69.2% were men. Hypertension (86.7%) and dyslipidemia (86.2%) were the most common risk factors for coronary artery disease. The proportion of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction was 55.0% and the Killip I class was the most frequent (78.3%). The rate of MM, MT, and TT genotypes of AGT M235T  polymorphism were 0%, 21.7%, and 78.3% respectively. The proportion of M and T alleles were 17.8% and 82.2%. Conclusions: TT genotype and T allele of AGT M235T genetic variant have the highest proportion in patients with AMI.
