Active VD exerts its biological functions through the vitamin D receptor (VDR), which polymorphisms in the VDR gene can impair. This study aims to establish VDR FokI and ApaI polymorphisms as risk factors for PDN. This case-control study used samples from T2DM patients with and without PDN. Neuropathic pain was diagnosed using the DN4 questionnaire, while FokI and ApaI polymorphisms were examined using the Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism method. Other factors examined included gender, hypertension, current insulin use, obesity, HbA1c levels, and dyslipidemia. A total of 64 subjects were involved in the study. The FokI polymorphism (CT+TT genotype) was a significant risk factor for PDN (OR 4.20; 95% CI [1.47-11.94]; <i>p</i> = 0.012). The T allele in the FokI polymorphism significantly increased the risk of PDN by 2.8 times (OR 2.78; 95% CI [1.28-6.01], <i>p</i> = 0.014). The ApaI polymorphism was not significantly associated with PDN. Diabetes duration ≥4.5 years and uncontrolled diabetes were other significant risk factors for PDN. Multivariate analysis identified three significant variables: FokI polymorphism (OR 5.00; 95% CI [1.37-18.24], <i>p</i> = 0.015), insulin use (OR 4.95; 95% CI [1.37-17.87], <i>p</i> = 0.015), and uncontrolled diabetes (OR 3.47; 95% CI [1.03-11.69], <i>p</i> = 0.045).

Treatment options for this condition remain limited to date. Nonetheless, two lines of research endeavor in the past decade have shown encouraging results worthy of further investigations. First, therapeutic hypoxia appears to improve neurological outcomes, which is somewhat counterintuitive but supported by preclinical evidence. Furthermore, nicotinic acid or nicotinamide riboside could be an adjunctive therapy that enhances the neuroprotective effect of hypoxia. Second, preclinical studies and preliminary clinical experience suggest that sildenafil is potentially disease-modifying for Leigh syndrome. Sildenafil has already been used to treat pulmonary hypertension, and its repurposing for Leigh syndrome has been endorsed by European Medicines Agency. This perspective aims to raise awareness about these progresses, as well as to call for more clinical studies to ensure safe and effective implementation of these treatment approaches in clinical practice.</p>","PeriodicalId":16491,"journal":{"name":"Journal of neurogenetics","volume":" ","pages":"1-3"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143573281","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
