The incidence and the magnitude of lipodystrophy and dyslipidemia in HIV-treated people reported in previous studies are very variable. Several predisposing factors have been identified, but there are few data on genetic factors. To search for a correlation between APOC3 polymorphisms and lipid disorders and lipodystrophy in HIV patients under d4T and protease inhibitors (PI)-containing HAART, we designed a monocenter, cross-sectional study in a University Hospital in Southern France during the period 2001-2004. Forty patients under HAART were included, with d4T for > or = 2 years and PI for > or = 1 year. We determined body mass composition by DXA, lipoprotein markers, and the -455/-482 apo C3 genotypes. Carriers of APOC3 variant alleles (-455 1/-482 1) displayed higher levels of triglycerides (3.72 vs. 2.57 mmol/liter), apo C3 (45.3 vs. 34.5 mg/liter), and apo E (130.2 vs. 66.5 mg/liter) and a lower fat mass (13.9 vs. 19.7%) than patients with nonvariant alleles (-455 0/-482 0). APOC3 polymorphisms might be associated with both dyslipidemia and lipoatrophy in HAART-treated patients.
先前研究报道的接受抗逆转录病毒治疗的HIV感染者中脂肪代谢障碍和血脂异常的发生率及严重程度差异很大。已确定了几个易感因素,但关于遗传因素的数据很少。为了探寻APOC3基因多态性与接受含司他夫定(d4T)和蛋白酶抑制剂(PI)的高效抗逆转录病毒治疗(HAART)的HIV患者的脂质紊乱及脂肪代谢障碍之间的相关性,我们于2001年至2004年期间在法国南部一家大学医院开展了一项单中心横断面研究。纳入了40例接受HAART治疗的患者,其服用d4T≥2年且服用PI≥1年。我们通过双能X线吸收法(DXA)、脂蛋白标志物以及-455 / -482载脂蛋白C3基因型来确定身体成分。与具有非变异等位基因(-455 0 / -482 0)的患者相比,携带APOC3变异等位基因(-455 1 / -482 1)的患者甘油三酯水平更高(3.72 vs. 2.57 mmol/升)、载脂蛋白C3水平更高(45.3 vs. 34.5 mg/升)、载脂蛋白E水平更高(130.2 vs. 66.5 mg/升)且脂肪量更低(13.9% vs. 19.7%)。APOC3基因多态性可能与接受HAART治疗患者的血脂异常和脂肪萎缩均相关。
