The VDR (Fok1) rs2228570 gene polymorphism was genotyped using allelic discrimination (AD) assay.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Fifty-four patients (60 %) reached PR with an average duration of 5.63 ± 2.9 months. Among remitters, the frequency of CC \"FF\" genotype and allelic frequency of C \"F\" were significantly higher (p<0.001). Furthermore, participants expressing \"CC\" genotype had earlier onset of PR and spent a significantly longer duration in remission (p<0.001). Younger age (p<0.001; OR 41.6; CI 12.12-142.99), absence of DKA (p<0.001; OR 16, CI 4.36-50.74), higher C-peptide levels (p<0.001; OR 19.55; CI 6.52-58.63), and presence of CC \"FF\" genotype of VDR (p<0.001; OR 6.74; CI 2.41-18.86) best predicted the overall occurrence of PR.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Younger age, less extent of metabolic derangements, and expression of a CC \"FF\" genotype were found to influence the occurrence of PR. Data from the current study showed that the \"C\" allele could have a protective role on preserving residual β-cell mass and could predict both onset and duration of PR among newly diagnosed T1D. These findings support the growing concept of future tailored precision medicine.</p>","PeriodicalId":50096,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142141654","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}
