Association of eNOS and MCP-1 Genetic Variants with Type 2 Diabetes and Diabetic Nephropathy Susceptibility: A Case-Control and Meta-Analysis Study.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and its secondary complications result from the complex interplay of genetic and environmental factors. To understand the role of these factors on disease susceptibility, the present study was conducted to assess the association of eNOS and MCP-1 variants with T2D and diabetic nephropathy (DN) in two ethnically and geographically different cohorts from North India. A total of 1313 subjects from two cohorts were genotyped for eNOS (rs2070744, rs869109213 and rs1799983) and MCP-1 (rs1024611 and rs3917887) variants. Cohort-I (Punjab) comprised 461 T2D cases (204 T2D with DN and 257 T2D without DN) and 315 healthy controls. Cohort-II (Jammu and Kashmir) included 337 T2D (150 T2D with DN and 187 T2D without DN) and 200 controls. Allele, genotype and haplotype frequencies were compared among the studied participants, and phenotype-genotype interactions were determined. Meta-analysis was performed to investigate the association between the selected variants and disease susceptibility. All three eNOS variants were associated with 1.5-4.0-fold risk of DN in both cohorts. MCP-1 rs1024611 conferred twofold risk towards DN progression in cohort-II, while rs3917887 provided twofold risk for both T2D and DN in both cohorts. eNOS and MCP-1 haplotypes conferred risk for T2D and DN susceptibility. Phenotype-genotype interactions showed significant associations between the studied variants and anthropometric and biochemical parameters. In meta-analysis, all eNOS variants conferred risk towards DN progression, whereas no significant association was observed for MCP-1 rs1024611. We show evidences for an association of eNOS and MCP-1 variants with T2D and DN susceptibility.
