Abstract:
SIRT1 and FOXO1 play an important role in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy (DN). However, the association between genetic polymorphisms and susceptibility to type 2 DN (T2DN) has not been explored. In this study, a total of 1066 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) (413 without and 653 with DN) were enrolled. The genotypes of three htSNPs (rs3818292, rs4746720, rs10823108) within SIRT1 and two htSNPs (rs2721068, rs17446614) in FOXO1 were determined by PCR-RFLP. HbA1C, LDL, HDL, TC, and TG levels were also examined. SIRT1 rs10823108 AA genotype was significantly associated with a decreased risk of DN (OR = 0.60, 95%CI: 0.38-0.97), while GA genotype (OR = 1.77, 95%CI: 1.33-2.35) and AA genotype (OR = 2.32, 95%CI: 1.25-4.34) of FOXO1 rs17446614 was associated with an increased T2DN risk. The interactions among rs1744 6614, BMI and duration of diabetes (OR: 2.63, 95%CI: 1.23-4.31) were also observed. Subsequent haplotype analysis revealed that two haplotype defined by AC (OR: 1.50, 95%CI: 1.15-1.94) and AT (OR: 1.79, 95%CI: 1.06-2.80) within FOXO1 gene may increase the risk of T2DN. In conclusion, genetic variant rs10823108 in SIRT1 and variant rs17446614 in FoxO1 may contribute to the risk of DN in T2DM patients.
