Chemerin rs17173608 and vaspin rs2236242 gene variants on the risk of end stage renal disease (ESRD) and correlation with plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) level.

ABSTRACT: End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is associated with critical kidney illness that seriously affects the lifespan. Genetic factors and oxidative stress could play critical role in the development of ESRD. We assessed the association between chemerin rs17173608 T/G and vaspin rs2236242 T/A genes variants with the risk of ESRD and their correlation with plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) level.In a case-control study, 131 gender and age-matched unrelated healthy controls and 110 ESRD patients were enrolled. The chemerin rs17173608 T/G and vaspin rs2236242 T/A were detected by Tetra primer-amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction (T-ARMS-PCR). The MDA concentration was determined by HPLC.Our findings for the first time revealed that in codominant genetic model (T/G vs. T/T genotype), the T/G genotype of chemerin gene significantly had a protective role against ESRD susceptibility. Also, in the presence of chemerin G allele, the risk of ESRD decreased by 0.79-fold (p?=?.048) in Kurdish population of Iran. The MDA serum levels in ESRD patients carrying the chemerin T/G?+?G/G genotype of rs17173608 T/G and also in carriers of A/A?+?T/A genotype of vaspin rs2236242 T/A were significantly higher compared to those in control subjects. The overall distribution of vaspin rs2236242 T/A genotypes and alleles comparing ESRD patients and healthy subjects were not statistically significant.We found that the G allele of chemerin rs17173608 compared to T allele decreased the risk of ESRD, and there was a significant association between chemerin and vaspin variants with plasma MDA level in a sample of the Iranian population.
