ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Our aim was to assess the associations between vitamin D (vitD) status, metabolic profile and polymorphisms in genes involved in the transport (Group-Component: GC) and the hydroxylation (NAD synthetase 1: NADSYN1) of 25 hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) in non-diabetic individuals. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study with 323 individuals recruited from the Health Center of Guadeloupe, France. The rs2282679 T?>?G and rs2298849 T?>?C in GC and rs12785878 G?>?T in NADSYN1 were genotyped. RESULTS: Mean age was 46(range 18-86) years. 57% of participants had vitD insufficiency, 8% had vitD deficiency, 61% were overweight and 58% had dyslipidemia. A higher frequency of overweight was noted in women carrying rs2298849T allele v CC carriers (71% v 50%; P?=?0.035). The rs2282679G allele was associated with increased risks of vitD deficiency and vitD insufficiency (OR =3.53, P?=?0.008, OR?=?2.34, P?=?0.02 respectively). The rs2298849 TT genotype was associated with vitD deficiency and overweight (OR =3.4, P?=?0.004 and OR?=?1.76, P?=?0.04 respectively) and the rs12785878 GG genotype with vitD insufficiency and dyslipidemia (OR?=?1.80, P?=?0.01 and OR?=?1.72, P?=?0.03 respectively). Based on the number of risk alleles for rs2282679 and rs12785878 combined, a genotype score of 3 (vs. 0-1) was associated with a 5.5 ng/mL average reduction in serum 25(OH)D levels (P?=?0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The GC and NADSYN1 genes are associated with the vitamin D status and might contribute to dyslipidemia and overweight independently of 25(OH)D levels.
