Relationship between angiotensin-converting enzyme gene insertion/deletion polymorphism, angiographically defined coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

Abstract: Introduction:The insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene has been implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases. The objective of the present study was to investigate the influence of ACE gene I/D polymorphism on the development and progression of coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction (MI) in type 2 diabetic (T2DM) patients. Materials and Methods:We screened 283 T2DM patients, inclusive of 160 patients with angiographically defined CAD… Show more

“…Many studies showed that polymorphisms of certain genes related to metabolism, including that of ACE, are also associated with the onset and development of Type 2-Diabetes [22, 24 -25]. There is a 287 bp DNA fragment insertion (I) and /or deletion(D) polymorphism in the intron 16 of ACE gene [22,26], which was recently studied [27][28][29][30][31] …”

“…The relationship of diabetes mellitus with CAD and the I/D polymorphism of the ACE gene revealed a significant relationship with the DD and ID genotypes [42]. In the present study, there was no association between diabetes mellitus and CAD in the genotypes DD (p=0.3874; power=0.1348), ID (p=0.3136; power=0.3136) and II (p=0.4071; power=0.1260).…”

“…We have previously reported an association of ACE polymorphism with T2DM with neuropathy and gestational diabetes. 11,12 Narne et al showed that it is associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction (MI), 15 Ganesan et al showed an association with CAD and T2DM, 16 and Reddy et al showed a significant association between MI and the DD genotype in our population. 17 Because weight and BMI primarily affect the knee joint, we categorized the OA cases into normal, overweight, and obese groups, based on BMI.…”
