Endothelial nitric oxide synthase Glu298Asp, 4b/a, and T‐786C polymorphisms in type 2 diabetic retinopathy

Abstract: This study identifies genetic variation at the eNOS locus as genetic risk factor for diabetic retinopathy, which may serve as a useful marker of increased susceptibility to the risk of retinopathy.

“…The NOS3 gene is located in the 7q35-36 region of chromosome 7 and the genetic polymorphism with a great clinical relevance is the 27 bp-VNTR 4b/a intron 4 [40]. In addition, NO produced by endothelial and epithelial cells, also modulates the regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor and is possibly associated to increase in processes of invasiveness and metastasis [41].…”

“…It was demonstrated in previous studies that the T/C (-786) eNOS polymorphism is associated with diabetic nephropathy and end stage renal disease [16,36], diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macula edema [38,39], albuminuria [40], rheumatoid arthritis [41], acute coronary syndrome [42,43], coronary artery disease [44] essential and arterial hypertension [45,46], inflammation and atherosclerosis [37,47]. In our study, significant results appeared for the T/C eNOS polymorphism in the comparison with genotype's frequencies between the healthy individuals and the groups (DM, DN, NDRD respectively) of diabetic patients.…”

“…Тем не менее в некоторых исследованиях была выявлена ассоциация генотипа гомозиготы по аллели Т с инсулинорезистентностью у пациентов с СД2 типа и кар-диомиопатиями среди европейцев [6] и японцев [7], а также с повышенным уровнем глюкозы в крови у жителей Саудовской Аравии [8]. Роль уровня NO, в частности, имеет большое значение в вероятности наступления таких осложнений СД2, как нефропатия [9,10], ретинопа-тия [11], кардиомиопатия [12].…”
