Several risk factors for atherosclerotic peripheral arterial disease (PAD), such
as dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension, are heritable. However,
predisposition to PAD may be influenced by genetic variants acting independently
of these risk factors. Identification of such genetic variants will provide
insights into underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms and facilitate the
development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. In contrast to
coronary heart disease, relatively few genetic variants that influence
susceptibility to PAD have been discovered. This may be, in part, because of
greater clinical and genetic heterogeneity in PAD. In this review, we (1) provide
an update on the current state of knowledge about the genetic basis of PAD,
including results of family studies and candidate gene, linkage as well as
genome-wide association studies; (2) highlight the challenges in investigating
the genetic basis of PAD and possible strategies to overcome these challenges;
and (3) discuss the potential of genome sequencing, RNA sequencing, differential
gene expression, epigenetic profiling, and systems biology in increasing our
understanding of the molecular genetics of PAD.
