Abstract Background Matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) is an important inflammatory marker in diabetic nephropathy. Many studies assessed the association between MMP-9 gene polymorphism and different microvascular complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus, though the results were inconclusive and need further exploration. Our study aimed to assess the association between MMP-9 -1562C/T gene polymorphism and diabetic nephropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Results Taking CC genotype of rs3918242 (MMP-9-1562C/T SNP) as the reference genotype and C as the reference allele, TT genotype, T allele showed significantly lower frequency in diabetic nephropathy group than without nephropathy (2.9% versus 20%, 20% versus 35.7% respectively), with the possible significant protective effect against diabetic nephropathy development (OR = 0.269, 0.450 respectively); it was considered as an independent predictor for diabetic nephropathy occurrence. Conclusions This study suggested that T allele of MMP-9 -1562C/T single nucleotide polymorphism had a protective role against diabetic nephropathy development and also had a role for early prediction of patients susceptible to this complication, so it helps in prevention and management of those patients.

Relevance. The problem of treatment and prevention of microvascular complications against the background of hyperglycemia is much broader than adherence to an appropriate diet. It is necessary to take into account both the behavioral characteristics of a person and the genetically determined mechanisms of metabolic regulation. Objective to study the behavioral and genetically determined differences in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus complicated by retinopathy with different PPARG-dependent phenotype. Materials and methods. The study included 101 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), who, according to the results of an ophthalmological examination, revealed various stages of diabetic retinopathy (DR) according to the ETDRS scale. The control group (CG) included 40 people without diabetes, comparable to patients by gender, age, and body mass index. Gene polymorphism was determined using real-time PCR on an automatic amplifier Gene Amp® PCR System 7500, the fatty acid spectrum (FA) was determined using gas-liquid chromatography, and behavioral and nutritional habits were analyze according to the results of a questionnaire. Results. In patients with type 2 diabetes, the most effective way to correct hyperglycemia at all stages of development of complications was the use of insulin in tablet forms. Carriers of the PPARG gene polymorphism had greater stability in achieving the target blood glucose level. The carriers of the wild genotype Pro12Pro did not differ from the CG in the rationality of nutrition and lifestyle. Carriers of the 12Ala allele were characterized by a neglect of food recommendations at the beginning of the disease, but with the progression of the degree of microvascular complications, the awareness of the need for proper nutrition doubled (P <0.05). Their lifestyle was initially less rational than that of carriers of the wild genotype Pro12Pro, but the course of T2DM and the development of complications in the form of DR by 2–3 times (P <0.05) reduced the desire for a healthy lifestyle.

IntroductionDiabetes mellitus is a growing public health epidemic in Asia. We examined the impact of type 2 diabetes, glycemic control and microvascular complications on mortality and cardiovascular outcomes in a multiethnic population-based cohort of Asians without prior cardiovascular disease.Research design and methodsThis was a prospective population-based cohort study in Singapore comprising participants from the three major Asian ethnic groups: Chinese, Malays and Indians, with baseline examination in 2004–2011. Participants with type 1 diabetes and those with cardiovascular disease at baseline were excluded. Type 2 diabetes, Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels and presence of microvascular complications (diabetic retinopathy and nephropathy) were defined at baseline. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), defined as a composite of cardiovascular mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke and revascularization, collected using a national registry.ResultsA total of 8541 subjects were included, of which 1890 had type 2 diabetes at baseline. Subjects were followed for a median of 6.4 (IQR 4.8–8.8) years. Diabetes was a significant predictor of mortality (adjusted HR 1.74, 95% CI 1.45 to 2.08, p<0.001) and MACE (adjusted HR 1.64, 95% CI 1.39 to 1.93, p<0.001). In those with diabetes, higher HbA1c levels were associated with increased MACE rates (adjusted HR (per 1% increase) 1.18, 95% CI 1.11 to 1.26, p<0.001) but not mortality (p=0.115). Subjects with two microvascular complications had significantly higher mortality and MACE compared with those with only either microvascular complication (adjusted p<0.05) and no microvascular complication (adjusted p<0.05).ConclusionDiabetes is a significant predictor of mortality and cardiovascular morbidity in Asian patients without prior cardiovascular disease. Among patients with type 2 diabetes, poorer glycemic control was associated with increased MACE but not mortality rates. Greater burden of microvascular complications identified a subset of patients with poorer outcomes.
