ABSTRACT: Background
Major depressive disorder is a frequent mental illness, which is common in patients with type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes comorbid with depression has a worse prognosis. There are multiple risk factors for depression, and genetic studies have shown that gene polymorphism may play an important role in the pathogenesis of depression.Methods
A total of 874 patients with type 2 diabetes were recruited for this study and divided into two groups: depressive group (DDM group, n = 234) and non-depressive group (NDDM group, n = 640). HTR1A gene polymorphisms (rs6295, rs878567, rs1800044) genotyping work was performed using a custom by design 48-Plex SNPscanTM Kit.Results
The rs6295, rs878567, and rs1800044 SNPs were not associated with type 2 diabetes comorbid with depression. Female sex, age, and FBG level increased the risk of depression in patients with type 2 diabetes.Conclusion
HTR1A rs6295, rs878567, and rs1800044 SNPs polymorphism is not associated with type 2 diabetes comorbid with depression. Rather, female sex, age, and FBG level are risk factors for depression among patients with type 2 diabetes. Larger studies are needed to further confirm our findings.
