There is one clinical trial.
Background: Cardiovascular diseases are the major health problem worldwide and the understanding of genetic contributions on the development of cardiovascular diseases is increasing significantly. The CD36 is a protein associated with uptake of oxidized forms of LDL and the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs1761667 A/G in the CD36 gene is correlated with increased consumption of total fat. The transcription factor STAT3 is released during the inflammatory acute phase response and the SNP rs8069645 G/A in the STAT3 gene is associated with abdominal obesity and higher intake of saturated fat. Studies have been shown the benefits of the Mediterranean diet in secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease and these dietary patterns have been often studied with nutrigenetic approach; these studies, however, are often limited to European populations, making it difficult to generalize to different populations. Hypothesis: Different dietary approaches may similarly influence in modifying metabolic, inflammatory and anthropometric profile, especially among patients with coronary arterial disease (CAD). The genetic interaction with environmental factors such as the nutrient intake, and the prescription of a different diet according to individual genotype, could influence the development and/or the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Objective: To evaluate the effect of three dietary approaches on metabolic, inflammatory and anthropometric profile in patients with CAD and possible interactions with polymorphisms in CD36 and STAT3 genes.
The transcription factor STAT3 is released during the inflammatory acute phase response and the SNP rs8069645 G/A in the STAT3 gene is associated with abdominal obesity and higher intake of saturated fat.
