Abstract
Background & objective: Hypovitaminosis D has shown to be linked with T2DM development and control in numerous studies. The association of SNPs in genes related to VitD metabolism with T2DM has not been sufficiently studied. Consequently, our aim in the present study was to explore the association between genetic variants in genes connected with VitD, mainly a SNP in GC (rs1155563), a SNP in DHCR7 (rs12785878) and a SNP in CYP2R1 (rs10500804) with glycaemic parameters in females with T2DM in Saudi Arabia.
Methods: The cross-sectional study included 149 females (age 38-52 years) with T2DM from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia (September 2022-March 2023). Blood was extracted from the participants for biochemical tests including measuring VitD [25(OH)D] concentration, parameters of glycaemia (HbA1c, insulin, fasting glucose and insulin sensitivity indices including HOMA2-IR and HOMA2-%β), and for genomic DNA isolation. Sanger DNA sequencing was used to screen for VitD genetic polymorphisms (rs1155563, rs12785878 and rs10500804).
Results: Minor allele frequency for rs1155563C, rs12785878T and rs10500804G was 0.21, 0.23 and 0.37, respectively. Levels of 25(OH)D and glycaemic parameters as well did not show any significant difference between the genotypes of each SNP.
Conclusion: This study showed lack of association of rs1155563 in GC, rs12785878 in DHCR7 and rs10500804 in CYP2R1 with VitD level primarily and with glycaemic parameters secondarily. Additional research is required to explore further other VitD genetic polymorphisms influencing T2DM which might lead consequently to genetically-based personalized management for T2DM.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
