CMIP SNPs and their haplotypes are associated with dyslipidaemia and clinicopathologic features of IgA nephropathy.

ABSTRACT: The relationship between serum lipid profiles and related clinicopathologic features of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) and c-Maf-inducing protein (CMIP) gene polymorphisms is unclear. The present study was designed to examine the effect of CMIP single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on dyslipidaemia and clinicopathologic features of IgAN. Clinical and pathological data from patients with IgAN diagnosed at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University were collected. DNA was extracted from blood samples. CMIP rs2925979 and CMIP rs16955379 genotypes were determined by PCR and direct sequencing. Among 543 patients, 281 had dyslipidaemia (51.7%). Compared with the non-dyslipidaemia group, the dyslipidaemia group exhibited higher blood pressure, blood urea nitrogen, uric acid, and body mass index; higher prevalence of oedema, haematuria, tubular atrophy, and interstitial fibrosis; and lower albumin and estimated glomerular filtration rate. In the dyslipidaemia group, the frequency of C allele carriers was higher than that of non-C allele carriers for rs16955379. Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein and high-density lipoprotein were associated with rs16955379C allele carriers. Apolipoprotein B was associated with A allele carriers of rs2925979. Linkage disequilibrium was observed between rs16955379 and rs2925979, and rs2925979G-rs16955379T was the most common haplotype. The frequencies of the four CMIP SNP haplotypes differed between dyslipidaemia and non-dyslipidaemia groups in IgAN (P<0.05, for all above). Dyslipidaemia is a common complication in IgAN patients, and those with dyslipidaemia present poor clinicopathologic features. CMIP SNPs and their haplotypes are closely correlated with the occurrence of dyslipidaemia and clinicopathologic damage in IgAN patients.
