Interaction of MTHFR C677T polymorphism with smoking in susceptibility to diabetic nephropathy in Chinese men with type 2 diabetes.

ABSTRACT: We investigated the interaction of MTHFR C677T polymorphism (rs1801133) with smoking in susceptibility to diabetic nephropathy (DN) in Chinese men with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We studied 655 Chinese men with T2DM, who were divided into two groups (321 with DN and 334 without DN). The genotype of MTHFR C677T polymorphism was detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction. MTHFR TT genotype carried a higher risk of DN compared with the CC genotype (OR = 2.05; P = 0.002). The T allele showed marked association with DN development in patients who smoked, using additive, recessive, and dominant models (OR = 1.60, 1.83, and 1.88, respectively; P = 0.006, 0.002, and 0.04, respectively), which was not observed in the nonsmoking group. Patients with TT and CT genotypes, who smoked had a higher risk of DN compared with the control group (non-smoking with CC genotype; OR = 3.73 and 2.28, respectively; P < 0.001 and P = 0.004, respectively), whereas the other groups were not observed. In conclusion, the T allele of rs1801133 may be a risk factor for DN in Chinese men with T2DM, and synergy appears to exist between the MTHFR rs1801133 and smoking in susceptibility to DN.

Project description:Background and purposeThe relationship of the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene C677T polymorphism with the incidence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in the Chinese population remains controversial. This study aimed to further clarify the effect of the MTHFR gene C677T polymorphism on GDM risk among Chinese pregnant women based on current evidence.MethodsSeveral databases were searched up to July 29, 2023 for relevant case-control studies. The numbers of patients with and without the T allele of the MTHFR gene C677T polymorphism in the GDM and control groups were determined, and all statistical analyses were performed by RevMan 5.3 software and STATA 15.0 software. Trial sequential analysis (TSA) was performed by TSA version 0.9 beta software to determine the required information size.ResultsA total of 17 case-control studies involving 12345 Chinese participants were included. The pooled results demonstrated that the T allele of the MTHFR gene C677T polymorphism was significantly associated with an increased risk of GDM, which was manifested by the five gene models of the MTHFR C677T polymorphism [T vs. C: odds ratio (OR)=1.59, P=0.03; TT vs. CC: OR=2.24, P<0.001; TC vs. CC: OR=1.28, P=0.05; (TT+TC) vs. CC: OR=1.55, P=0.003; TT vs. (TC+CC): OR=1.89, P<0.001]. Subgroup analysis based on the regions indicated that the significant relationship between the T allele of the MTHFR gene C677T polymorphism and an increased risk of GDM was detected only among the southern population [T vs. C: OR=1.62, P=0.09; TT vs. CC: OR=2.22, P=0.004; TC vs. CC: OR=1.17, P=0.28; (TT+TC) vs. CC: OR=1.43, P=0.03; TT vs. (TC+CC): OR=1.97, P=0.006]. TSA plots showed that the information sizes for the association between the MTHFR gene C677T polymorphism and GDM risk were sufficient in the homozygote (TT vs. CC) and recessive (TT vs. TC+CC) models.ConclusionThe MTHFR gene C677T polymorphism is closely related to susceptibility to GDM in the southern Chinese population, and the C-T mutation serves as an important genetic risk factor for GDM. More well-designed large case-control studies are needed to further confirm the above findings.
