To investigate the frequency of the single-base change polymorphic variants identified in tumor necrosis factor (TNF) gene (-308 G/A) and lymphotoxin alpha (LTA) (+252 G/A) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).
A prospective study in a Mexican-mestizo population of 51 patients with T2D and 48 healthy subjects was carried out. We took a peripheral blood sample from each individual for identification of the polymorphic genotypes by polymerase chain reaction.
The genotype distribution in T2D was: TNF alpha homozygous 0%; TNFG/A heterozygous 20%; TNFG homozygous 80%.
In regards to the TNF -308 G/A genotype, we found a significant difference (p = 0.012) with a bigger frequency in the group of patients. The health controls showed a higher frequency of TNF -308 G/G genotype (p = 0.034).
研究肿瘤坏死因子(TNF)基因(-308 G/A)和淋巴毒素α(LTA)(+252 G/A)中鉴定出的单碱基变化多态性变体在2型糖尿病(T2D)患者中的出现频率。
对51例T2D患者和48名健康受试者的墨西哥混血人群进行了一项前瞻性研究。我们从每个个体采集外周血样本,通过聚合酶链反应鉴定多态性基因型。
T2D中的基因型分布为:TNFα纯合子0%;TNFG/A杂合子20%;TNFG纯合子80%。
关于TNF -308 G/A基因型,我们发现患者组的频率更高,存在显著差异(p = 0.012)。健康对照组中TNF -308 G/G基因型的频率更高(p = 0.034)。
