Abstract 14011: Rare Variants in GUCY1A3 Gene Contribute to Hypertension via NO/cGMP Pathway

open access: closedCirculation, 2022
Hypertension is a leading risk factor for cardiovascular events and considered as a complex genetic disease. Previous studies have revealed many common variants relevant to hypertension. However, the contributions of rare variants and the underlying mechanisms are still poorly understood.

Abstract 14092: Reduction of Atherosclerosis in Gucy1a3 Deficient Mice

open access: closedCirculation, 2015
Introduction: GUCY1A3 encodes the α1 subunit of the soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) and has been associated with CAD/MI by genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and in a rare extended family with MI. The α1 and the β1 subunit form the heterodimeric sGC, the nitric oxide (NO) receptor.

Stimulators of the soluble guanylyl cyclase: promising functional insights from rare coding atherosclerosis-related GUCY1A3 variants

open access: closedBasic Research in Cardiology, 2016
Stimulators of the soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) are emerging therapeutic agents in cardiovascular diseases. Genetic alterations of the GUCY1A3 gene, which encodes the α1 subunit of the sGC, are associated with coronary artery disease. Studies investigating sGC stimulators in subjects with CAD and carrying risk-related variants in sGC are, however ...

Abstract 15483: Functional Relevance of Rare GUCY1A3 Variants in Patients Affected by Premature Myocardial Infarction

open access: closedCirculation, 2015
Introduction: Myocardial infarction (MI) is the main complication of coronary artery disease (CAD). Recently, a locus tagging the GUCY1A3 gene has been shown to be genome-wide significantly associated with CAD. GUCY1A3 encodes the α1 subunit of the soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC), a heterodimer composed of α1 and β1 subunits ...

Inhibition of angiogenesis in human glioma cell lines by antisense RNA from the soluble guanylate cyclase genes, GUCY1A3 and GUCY1B3

open access: closedOncology Reports, 2004
Malignant gliomas, most of which show an elevated level of vascular endothelial cell growth factor (VEGF) expression, are well known for their hyper-vascularity. One of the possible inducers of VEGF in tumor cells is nitric oxide (NO), which is synthesized by NO synthase and stimulates soluble guanylate cyclase (GC) in tumor cells. Here, we report that

Open angle glaucoma in soluble guanylate cyclase α1-deficient mice and its association with the GUCY1A3/GUCY1B3 locus in humans

open access: closedNitric Oxide, 2012
Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is a leading cause of blindness, due to irreversible retinal ganglion cell (RGC) loss with optic nerve (ON) degeneration. Currently, there is no cure for POAG and available therapies offer incomplete protection, highlighting the need for novel drug targets.
