Background Patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) frequently complain of angina-like symptoms in the absence of organic coronary stenoses. Coronary spasm might cause myocardial ischemia in HCM patients. Delta-sarcoglycan plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of HCM and coronary spasm in a mouse model. Methods and Results This is a retrospective, single-center study with a small sample size. Seventy patients with HCM underwent coronary angiography and received acetylcholine provocation test. Coronary risk factors and 5'-untranslated region (UTR) G to C polymorphism on delta-sarcoglycan gene (n=64) were evaluated in the HCM patients. In 31 (44.3%) of 70 HCM patients, coronary spasm was induced by the provocation. None of the coronary risk factors was significantly different between the coronary spasm group and the non-coronary spasm group. The 5'-UTR gene polymorphism was associated with the occurrence of coronary spasm with an additive effect on the coexistence (p=0.025). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the C allele of 5'-UTR polymorphism was a significant risk factor for coronary spasm in patients with HCM (odds ratio, 3.1; 95% confidence interval, 1.0 to 9.5; p=0.045) that was independent of traditional coronary risk factors. Conclusions The 5'-UTR polymorphism on delta-sarcoglycan gene was associated with coronary spasm in Japanese patients with HCM.
