Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Hereditary susceptibility is an important role in episode and development of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Aggregation of monocyte in kidney tissue, differentiation to histocyte and reinforcement of signal are possibly closed to episode and development of DN in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Regulated upon activation normal T-cell expressed and secreted (RANTES) is a chemokine of C-C subtribe. It can mediate infiltration and activation of inflammatory cells and cause injuries of renal corpuscle and renal mesenchymal. This may be a key mechanism of episode and development of DM. Thus, RANTES gene may be one of the susceptible gene of DN. OBJECTIVE :To investigate correlation between RANTES gene promoter -28C/G polymorphism and DN in type 2 DM in Chinese. DESIGN: Case-contrast study. SETTING: Department of Endocrine, Affiliated Hospital of Guiyang Medical College; Center of Diabetes Mellitus of Guizhou Province. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 143 patients with type 2 DM were recruited from the Department of Endocrine, Affiliated Hospital of Guiyang Medical College and Department of Endocrine,Guizhou People's Hospital from September 2003 to September 2005. Among them, 53 cases had normoalbuminuria, 54 microalbuminuria and 36 macroalbuminuria. Another 55 healthy subjects who were selected from Center of Health Examination, Affiliated Hospital of Guiyang Medical College were regarded as control group. METHODS: 3-5 mL peripheral venous blood was collected from all subjects. RANTES gene promoter -28C/G genotype was detected with polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism technique. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Allele frequency and genotypic frequency of RANTES gene promoter -28C/G; ② risk factor of DN was analyzed with Logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: All 198 subjects were involved in the final analysis. ① Comparison of CG genotypic frequency of -28C/G: There was no significant difference between normal control group and DM group (P＞ 0.05); however, that in microalbuminuria group and macroalbuminuria group was higher than that in normoalbuminuria group (24.1％, 47.2％, 9.4％, P ＜ 0.05), and that in macroalbuminuria group was also higher than that in microalbuminuria group (P ＜ 0.05). ② Frequency of G allele of -28C/G: There was no significant difference between normal control group and DM group (P ＞ 0.05); however, that in micro albuminuria group and macrealbuminuria group was higher than that in microalbuminuria group (12.0％, 23.6％, 4.7％, P ＜ 0.05), and that in macroalbuminuria group was also higher than that in microalbuminuria group (P＜ 0.05). ③ Logistic regression analysis showed that positive genotype of -28G was related to DN (95％ Cl:1.402-15.032, P =0.012). CONCLUSION: Positive genotype of RANTES gene promoter-28G may be related to DN.
