AbstractChronic kidney disease (CKD) patients have many affected physiological pathways. Variations in the genes regulating these pathways might affect the incidence and predisposition to this disease. A total of 722 Spanish adults, including 548 patients and 174 controls, were genotyped to better understand the effects of genetic risk loci on the susceptibility to CKD. We analyzed 38 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in candidate genes associated with the inflammatory response (interleukins IL-1A, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α, ICAM-1), fibrogenesis (TGFB1), homocysteine synthesis (MTHFR), DNA repair (OGG1, MUTYH, XRCC1, ERCC2, ERCC4), renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (CYP11B2, AGT), phase-II metabolism (GSTP1, GSTO1, GSTO2), antioxidant capacity (SOD1, SOD2, CAT, GPX1, GPX3, GPX4), and some other genes previously reported to be associated with CKD (GLO1, SLC7A9, SHROOM3, UMOD, VEGFA, MGP, KL). The results showed associations of GPX1, GSTO1, GSTO2, UMOD, and MGP with CKD. Additionally, associations with CKD related pathologies, such as hypertension (GPX4, CYP11B2, ERCC4), cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancer predisposition (ERCC2) were also observed. Different genes showed association with biochemical parameters characteristic for CKD, such as creatinine (GPX1, GSTO1, GSTO2, KL, MGP), glomerular filtration rate (GPX1, GSTO1, KL, ICAM-1, MGP), hemoglobin (ERCC2, SHROOM3), resistance index erythropoietin (SOD2, VEGFA, MTHFR, KL), albumin (SOD1, GSTO2, ERCC2, SOD2), phosphorus (IL-4, ERCC4 SOD1, GPX4, GPX1), parathyroid hormone (IL-1A, IL-6, SHROOM3, UMOD, ICAM-1), C-reactive protein (SOD2, TGFB1,GSTP1, XRCC1), and ferritin (SOD2, GSTP1, SLC7A9, GPX4). To our knowledge, this is the second comprehensive study carried out in Spanish patients linking genetic polymorphisms and CKD.

AbstractBackground:We investigated the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the C-reactive protein (Methods:We measured hs-CRP levels in 646 6–8-year-old and 707 12–16-year-old children using a high-sensitivity C-Reactive Protein ELISA kit. Four SNPs in theResults:The four CRP SNPs studied were significantly (p<0.05) associated with hs-CRP levels in both cohorts. Furthermore, two common CRP haplotypes (constructed using the SNPs in order: rs1205, rs1130864, rs1800947, rs2794521) ACGA and GCGG were associated with significantly lower CRP levels (p<0.05) at both ages. The LEPR SNPs rs1137100 (K109R) and rs1137101 (Q223R), and LEP SNP rs7799039 (G2548A) were also associated to hs-CRP levels (p<0.05) in both cohorts.Conclusions:hs-CRP levels in healthy Spanish children, besides being associated to common polymorphisms in the

Abstract Purpose Observational studies have associated obesity with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and arterial stiffness, but the causality remains unclear. We aimed to investigate the causality of obesity with CKD and arterial stiffness using Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Methods We genotyped 14 body mass index (BMI)-associated variants validated in East Asians in 11384 Chinese adults. A genetic risk score based on the 14 variants and the 14 individual single nucleotide polymorphisms were respectively used as instrumental variables (IVs). CKD was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate &lt;60 mL/min/1.73 m 2. Arterial stiffness was defined as brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity &gt;1550 cm/s. Results Using the genetic risk score as the IV, we demonstrated causal relations of each 1-standard deviation increment in BMI with CKD (odds ratio [OR]: 2.36; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.11-5.00) and arterial stiffness (OR: 1.71; 95% CI: 1.22-2.39). Using the 14 single nucleotide polymorphisms individually as IVs, each 1-standard deviation increment in BMI casually associated with CKD (OR: 2.58; 95% CI: 1.39-4.79) and arterial stiffness (OR: 1.87; 95% CI: 1.24-2.81) in the inverse-variance weighted analysis, and MR-Egger regression revealed no evidence of horizontal pleiotropy (Both P for intercept≥0.34). The causality between obesity and CKD was validated in two-sample MR analysis among Europeans (681275 of Genetic Investigation of ANthropometric Traits and 133413 of CKD Genetics). Conclusions This study provided novel insights into causality of obesity with CKD and arterial stiffness, highlighting the importance of weight management for primary prevention and control of subclinical vascular diseases.

Abstract Purpose This study was aimed to discover the combined effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the C-reactive protein (CRP) gene and potential environmental factors on the risk and prognosis for diabetic foot osteomyelitis (DFO). Methods A total of 1734 diabetes mellitus patients, 681 with DFO and 1053 without DFO, were successfully recruited, as well as 1261 healthy control individuals. Participants data were recorded regarding age, gender, smoking and drinking history, body mass index (BMI), hypertension, cacosmia, and ulceration. A total of 11 SNPs within the CRP gene were designated for exploration, by logistic regression analyses, of how they might interact with environmental factors to affect susceptibility to DFO. Results Frequencies of smoking and drinking, and incidence of hypertension, cacosmia, or ulceration displayed marked differences (all P<0.05) between DFO and non-DFO patients. Furthermore, allele G of rs11265260 (A>G), allele G of rs1800947 (C>G), and allele T of rs3093059 (T>C) and rs1130864 (C>T) exhibited a trend to increase risk of DFO (all P<0.05). Allele G of rs11265260 (A>G), allele G of rs1800947 (C>G) and rs3093068 (G>C), and allele T of rs1130864 (C>T) were significant predictors of poor prognosis among DFO patients (P<0.05). In addition, genotypes of rs11265260 (i.e., GG and AG), rs1800947 (i.e., CG and GG), rs3093059 (i.e., TT) and rs113084 (i.e., CT and TT) amplified the influence of smoking, alcohol consumption, cacosmia, and ulceration on progression from non-DFO to DFO (all γ>1). Conclusion Genetic mutations within CRP functioned interactively with external factors to affect DFO risk.
