Pro198Leu Polymorphism in the Glutathione Peroxidase 1 Gene Contributes to Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy in Type 2 Diabetes Patients.

ABSTRACT: Glutathione peroxidase 1 (Gpx1) is an endogenous antioxidant enzyme. The T allele of the Pro198Leu polymorphism in the Gpx1 (rs1050450, 198C > T) gene is associated with reduced enzyme activity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between Pro198Leu polymorphism and risk of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). We examined 1244 T2DM patients and 730 healthy controls. In the patient group, 33 % had diabetic peripheral neuropathy. All subjects were genotyped for the Gpx1 Pro198Leu polymorphism by polymerase chain reaction and restriction analysis. A significant increase in the T allele and TT genotype frequencies was observed in DPN patients compared to those without DPN (OR 1.55, 95 % CI 1.30-1.85 and 1.89, 95 % CI 1.30-2.74, respectively). The association remained significant after correction for age, disease duration, HbA1c and BMI. When distribution of T allele was compared between DPN+ and DPN- subgroups and controls, OR was 1.54 for DPN+ and 1.00 for DPN- patients. In conclusion, our findings suggest that Gpx1 Pro198Leu genotypes are significantly associated with the risk of diabetic peripheral neuropathy in patients with T2DM. The study provides new clinically relevant information regarding genetic determinants of susceptibility to diabetic neuropathy.

Project description:Aims/introductionNon-alcoholic fatty liver disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus are closely related, and often occur simultaneously in patients. Type 2 diabetes increases the risk of diabetic peripheral neuropathy, resulting in intolerable pain and extremity amputation that reduces the quality of life. However, the role of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in the pathogenesis of diabetic peripheral neuropathy remains unclear. Thus, we evaluated the correlation of liver fibrosis and steatosis, which are representative histological morphologies of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, with diabetic peripheral neuropathy in type 2 diabetes patients.Materials and methodsFive hundred twenty individuals with type 2 diabetes were recruited. All the patients were detected nerve conduction study for diabetic peripheral neuropathy and fibro touch for liver steatosis and fibrosis. Correlation of DPN with liver steatosis and fibrosis were analysed with binary logistic analysis.ResultsAmong the 520 patients, the prevalence of liver steatosis, fibrosis and diabetic peripheral neuropathy was 63.0% (n = 328), 18.1% (n = 94) and 52.1% (n = 271), respectively. The prevalence of diabetic peripheral neuropathy was significantly elevated in patients with liver steatosis (55.7 vs 44.9%, P = 0.03) and fibrosis (61.5 vs 50%, P = 0.04), and it increased as liver stiffness measurement increased. Additionally, both hepatic steatosis (odds ratio 1.48, 95% confidence interval 1.04-2.11, P = 0.03) and fibrosis (odds ratio 1.60, 95% confidence interval 1.02-2.51, P = 0.04) were correlated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. After adjusting for age, sex, weight, height, body mass index, waist hip ratio, duration of type 2 diabetes, blood glucose, homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance, blood pressure, serum lipid, liver enzyme, urea, uric acid, creatinine and inflammatory factors, liver fibrosis remained associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (odds ratio 2.24, 95% confidence interval 1.11-4.53, P = 0.02).ConclusionsThe prevalence of diabetic peripheral neuropathy was elevated in patients with liver steatosis and fibrosis. Liver fibrosis was also independently associated with an increased risk of diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Project description:AimDNA methylation is thought to be involved in regulating the expression of key genes and inducing diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). However, clinically, the level of whole-genome DNA methylation and its relationship with DPN remains unclear.Methods186 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University since Jul. 2016 to Oct. 2017 were enrolled in the study, including 100 patients in the DPN group and 86 patients in the non-DPN group, diagnosed with Toronto Clinical Scoring System (TCSS). Clinical and biochemical characteristics between the two groups were compared, and the correlations with TCSS scores were analyzed. Furthermore, the levels of genomic DNA methylation of leukocytes, measured with high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), were also analyzed between the two groups.ResultsAge, duration, triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C), creatinine, uric acid (UA), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and C-reactive protein (CRP) were significantly higher in the DPN group. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and the level of genomic DNA methylation were much lower in the DPN group. Spearman correlation analysis showed that TCSS was positively correlated with age, duration, UA, and CRP and was negatively correlated with body mass index (BMI), eGFR, and the level of genomic DNA methylation. Interestingly, multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that only duration, genomic DNA methylation, and eGFR had impacts on TCSS. The results also showed that the levels of genomic DNA methylation did not change significantly whether or not there was renal injury. Another multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that TCSS and BMI were the influencing factors of genomic DNA methylation. Finally, we found that genomic DNA methylation levels were decreased significantly in the DPN group compared with the non-DPN group when the duration is ≥5 years or BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2.ConclusionLow level of genomic DNA methylation is a relative specific risk factor of diabetic peripheral neuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes.
