In HDAC9 SNP rs2107595 risk allele-positive LVAS patients, there were 155 genes differentially expressed compared to risk allele-negative patients (fold change > ;1.2;, p < 0.05).
Background and Purpose- Genome-wide association studies have identified the <i>HDAC9</i> (histone deacetylase 9) gene region as a major risk locus for atherosclerotic stroke and coronary artery disease in humans.
These results suggest that exposure to SVA, an inhibitor of HDAC, may be associated with a lower recurrent stroke risk although we cannot exclude residual confounding in this study design.
In conclusion, this meta-analysis suggested that the T allele of rs2107595 in HDAC9 increases the risk of stroke but that the G allele of rs2389995 decreases the risk of stroke in the Chinese population.
Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have indicated an association of histone deacetylase 9 (HDAC9) genetic variant with large-vessel stroke and coronary artery disease, among the European population.
A variant located at the end of HDAC9 gene within clusters of DNAse I sensitivity zones and histone modification hotspots has been associated with large vessel stroke and could be linked to plaque instability.
Our results also supported robust associations with ischaemic stroke for four other loci that have been reported in previous studies, including PITX2 (first stage OR 1·39, 1·29-1·49, p=3·26 × 10<sup>-19</sup>; joint OR 1·37, 1·30-1·45, p=2·79 × 10<sup>-32</sup>) and ZFHX3 (first stage OR 1·19, 1·11-1·27, p=2·93 × 10<sup>-7</sup>; joint OR 1·17, 1·11-1·23, p=2·29 × 10<sup>-10</sup>) for cardioembolic stroke, and HDAC9 (first stage OR 1·29, 1·18-1·42, p=3·50 × 10<sup>-8</sup>; joint OR 1·24, 1·15-1·33, p=4·52 × 10<sup>-9</sup>) for large artery atherosclerosis stroke.
Genome-wide association studies have demonstrated various polymorphisms of histone deacetylase 9 (HDAC9) gene was strong risk locus for large-vessel stroke, but the results were controversial.
Our results suggest that HDAC9 represents the disease-relevant gene at the stroke and coronary artery disease risk locus on 7p21.1, and that risk alleles in this region mediate their effects through increased HDAC9 expression.
This region on chromosome 7 has been previously associated with ischemic stroke and the large vessel stroke occlusive subtype (including HDAC9), suggesting a possible genetic link between this stroke subtype and IA.
Recent genome-wide association studies revealed that a genetic variant in the loci corresponding to histone deacetylase 9 (HDAC9) is associated with large vessel stroke.
We identified a new association for large vessel stroke within HDAC9 (encoding histone deacetylase 9) on chromosome 7p21.1 (including further replication in an additional 735 affected individuals and 28,583 controls) (rs11984041; combined P = 1.87 × 10(-11); odds ratio (OR) = 1.42, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.28-1.57).

We verified previous associations for cardioembolic stroke near PITX2 (p=2·8×10(-16)) and ZFHX3 (p=2·28×10(-8)), and for large-vessel stroke at a 9p21 locus (p=3·32×10(-5)) and HDAC9 (p=2·03×10(-12)).
Now a recent GWAS published in Nature Genetics confirmed these previous associations, analyzed the specificity of the previous associations with particular stroke subtypes and identified a new association between HDAC9 and large vessel stroke.
