Haptoglobin genotype and risk of diabetic nephropathy in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus: a study on a Spanish population.

چکیده
BACKGROUND Few reports have studied the possible association between the haptoglobin (Hp) genotype and the risk of diabetic nephropathy (DN) in type 1 diabetes (T1D), with conflicting results to date. AIMS To study whether the 2-2 Hp genotype is associated with an increased risk of overt DN in a Spanish population with T1D. METHODS We performed a case-control study in a Spanish population. CASES T1D patients with end-stage renal disease (stage 5 of NKF-KDOQI), awaiting reno-pancreatic transplantation or having already been transplanted (reno-pancreatic or renal alone). CONTROLS T1D patients, matched for sex and time of diabetes evolution, with preserved renal function and normal urinary albumin excretion. Hp genotyping was done using polymerase chain reaction and electrophoresis. RESULTS We included 57 cases and 57 controls in the study. There were no statistically significant differences in gender (70% vs. 61% males, p=1.0) or the duration of diabetes (23.0 ± 6.7 vs. 20.8 ± 9.3 years; p=0.1), although the age of onset of diabetes was lower in the cases (14.1 ± 6.8 vs. 17.7 ± 10.1 years, p=0.03). The frequency of genotypes 1-1, 1-2 and 2-2 was 19.3%, 42.1% and 38.6% in cases and 17.5%, 49.1% and 33.4% in controls, respectively, with no statistically significant differences between groups (p=0.8). Conditional logistic regression analysis showed no significant association between genotype 2-2 of Hp and the development of DN (OR 1.14, CI 0.52-2.52). CONCLUSIONS In our sample of a Spanish population with T1D, no association was found between the Hp genotype and risk of overt DN.

بررسی ارتباط پلیمورفیسم C677T ژن متیلن تتراهیدروفولات ردکتاز با نفروپاتی دیابتی
Background: Diabetic Nephropathy is one of the main microvascular complications of diabetic mellitus. Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (MTHFR) is one of the candidate genes of diabetic nephropathy. MTHFR (C677T) polymorphism reduces catalytic activity of MTHFR and leads to increase level of plasma homocysteine. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of C677T polymorphism with ...

Objective(s):To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the contributions of GST genetic variants to the risk of diabetic retinopathy in an Iranian population. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine whether sequence variation in glutathione S-transferase gene (GSTM1 and GSTT1) is associated with development of diabetic retinopathy in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D...

Background: Nitric oxide (NO) produced by endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) mediates a large range of processes, and abnormality in the production of NO has been implicated in diabetic complications including diabetic nephropathy (DN). G894T polymorphism in the eNOS gene has been shown to decreased activity the NO levels of plasma. The association between eNOS Glu298Asp gene polymorphism and DN ri...
