Diabetic type 2 patients compared to nondiabetic patients exhibit an increased risk of developing diabetic kidney disease (DKD), the leading cause of end-stage renal disease. Hyperglycemia, hypertension, oxidative stress (OS), and genetic background are some of the mechanisms and pathways implicated in DKD pathogenesis. However, data on OS pathway susceptibility genes show limited success and conflicting or inconclusive results. Our study is aimed at exploring OS pathway genes and variants which could be associated with DKD. We recruited 121 diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM2) patients with DKD (cases) and 220 DM2, non-DKD patients (control) of Greek origin and performed a case-control association study using genome-wide association data. PLINK and EIGENSOFT were used to analyze the data. Our results indicate 43 single nucleotide polymorphisms with their 21 corresponding genes on the OS pathway possibly contributing or protecting from DKD: SPP1, TPO, TTN, SGO2, NOS3, PDLIM1, CLU, CCS, GPX4, TXNRD2, EPHX2, MTL5, EPX, GPX3, ALOX12, IPCEF1, GSTA, OXR1, GPX6, AOX1, and PRNP. Therefore, a genetic OS background might underlie the complex pathogenesis of DKD in DM2 patients.

This study aimed to investigate the susceptibility of 8 polymorphisms in ApoB and PCSK9 genes to diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This is a case-control association study, including 575 DKD cases and 653 controls. Genotypes were determined using ligase detection reaction method, and data are analyzed using STATA software. The genotype distributions of rs1042034 and rs12720838 differed significantly between the two groups (P < 0.001 and P = 0.008, respectively). After adjusting for confounding factors, the mutations of rs1042034 and rs12720838 were associated with the significantly increased risk of DKD. For instance, carriers of rs1042034 T allele (CT and TT genotypes) were 1.07 times more likely to have DKD than carriers of rs1042034 CC genotype [odds ratio (OR) = 1.07, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.03–1.10, P < 0.001]. Further, haplotype T-A-G-T in ApoB gene was overrepresented in cases (18.10%) compared with controls (12.76%) (PSimulated = 0.045), and haplotype T-A-G-T was associated with a 33% increased risk of DKD (OR = 1.33, 95% CI: 1.04, 1.70). In further haplotype-phenotype analysis, significant association was only noted for hypertension and omnibus haplotypes in ApoB gene (PSimulated = 0.001). Our findings indicate that ApoB gene is a candidate gene for DKD in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract Background: Diabetic kidney disease is a leading cause of end-stage kidney disease worldwide, its incidence is still increasing and the precise mechanism is not yet fully understood.This study aimed to investigate the possible association of miR-30a and its potential target gene, SNAI1, polymorphisms with diabetic kidney disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: This case-control is study included 240 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with diabetic kidney disease and 280 patients without diabetic kidney disease. Genotyping of miR-30a and SNAI1 polymorphisms were performed by allelic discrimination assay with Taq-Man-MGB probes. Result: The results demonstrated that the CC genotype of rs2222722 in miR-30a was associated with an increased risk of diabetic kidney disease in Chinese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients (OR = 2.81, 95% CI 1.58-4.97, p < 0.001). Stratified analyses revealed that the miR-30a CC genotype was strongly associated with an increased risk of diabetic kidney disease in subjects who were young (< 65 years), male, and had a low body mass index, as well as those with poor glycemic control. What’s more, CC genotype carriers were more likely to exhibit decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate levels and urinary protein production. In addition, the GG genotype of SNAI1 was also associated with the development of diabetic kidney disease, and the risk was 1.73 times higher than that in AA+AG genotype carriers (95% CI 1.01-2.96, p = 0.046). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the miR-30a CC and SNAI1 GG genotypes were indispensable and dangerous contributing factors to the development of diabetic kidney disease. Conclusion: The CC genotype of miR-30a rs2222722 and GG genotype of SNAI1 rs1543442 might be associated with diabetic kidney disease risk in Chinese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.

Abstract Aim Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a major long-term complication of diabetes mellitus (DM). Given the paucity of data on DKD in Jordan, we aimed to evaluate the prevalence, characteristics and correlates of DKD in Jordanian patients with type 2 DM. Methods This cross-sectional study included 1398 adult patients with type 2 DM who sought medical advice in the endocrinology clinic between March and September 2019. Demographic, clinical and laboratory data were reviewed. DKD was defined as reduced eGFR, and/or albuminuria. Three regression models were constructed to identify factors associated with CKD stages, albuminuria and DKD. Results Overall, 701 (50.14%) patients had DKD, with a median age of 59.71 ± 11.36  years. Older age, high triglycerides, and low high-density lipoprotein were associated with DKD (multivariable odds ratio [OR]: 1.02, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.01–1.03, p < 0.01; OR: 1.1, 95% CI: 1.01–1.2; and OR: 0.98, 95% CI: 0.97–0.99, p < 0.01 respectively). Metformin and renin-angiotensin system blockers were negatively associated with albuminuria and chronic kidney disease stages (p < 0.01). Conclusion Our study demonstrated that approximately one half of patients with type 2 DM had DKD. Further studies are necessary to understand this high prevalence and the underlying factors. Future research are needed to assess implementing targeted community-based intervention.

Abstract The presence of albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is a marker of endothelial dysfunction and also one of the criteria for diagnosing diabetic kidney disease. The present study aimed to identify associations between cardiovascular risk factors and renal albumin excretion in a group of 218 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. HbA1c values, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure were statistically significantly higher in patients with microalbuinuria or macroalbuminuria compared to patients with normoalbuminuria (p <0.01). We identified a statistically significant positive association between uric acid values and albuminuria, respectively 25- (OH)2 vitamin D3 deficiency and microalbuminuria (p <0.01).

Introduction: Non diabetic kidney disease (NDKD), a treatable condition, is common in diabetic patients with atypical clinical presentations. Present study aimed to find out histopathological diagnosis of kidney disease in type 2 Diabetes mellitus with such presentations. Method: This was a hospital based cross sectional study conducted in Nephrology department, Bir hospital, Nepal from Aug 2019 to January 2021. Total 29 diabetic patients with atypical presentations, rapid rise of proteinuria alone (n=5), with microscopic hematuria (n=6), with impaired renal function (n=8) and rapid rise of creatinine with (n=8) or without (n=2) microscopic hematuria were included. The baseline information was recorded and kidney biopsy was performed. Result: The mean age of patients was 52.6±10.4 y and 22(75.9%) were male. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) was absent in 24(82.8%) patients. Presence of NDKD alone was in 6(20.7%) and superimposed on diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in 10(34.5%) with total NDKD in 16(55.2%) and isolated DKD in 13(44.8%) patients. Non diabetic kidney disease were glomerulonephritis 12(75%) with membranous nephropathy 4(25%) and IgA nephropathy 4(25%) patients. The significant difference between NDKD and isolated DKD was only the duration of diabetes < 5 y in 8(61.5%) of isolated DKD and ≥5 y in 13(81.2%) patients with NDKD (p=0.018). Diabetic retinopathy was absent in 6(100%) patients with isolated NDKD, 8(80%) of class III and 5(62.5%) of class IV DKD. Conclusion: Glomerulonephritis is the commonest NDKD in type 2 DM with atypical presentation and advance DKD (Class III & IV) is present even in absence of diabetic retinopathy and short duration of diabetes.

The risk of developing diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in patients with undiagnosed diabetes mellitus (UD) has never been evaluated. We studied the burden of UD on the risk of developing DKD in the Japanese population in a single-center retrospective cohort study. The patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, but without DKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 or proteinuria), were recruited from January 2018 to January 2019; medical records were scrutinized retrospectively from January 2003 until May 2019. The individuals, with diabetes that could not be denied based on past and current records, comprised the undiagnosed diabetes (UD) group whereas those with confirmed diagnosis comprised the diagnosed diabetes (DD) group. The group differences were tested using a Kaplan–Meier curve and Cox proportional hazards model. Among the 408 participants, 164 (40.2%) and 244 (59.8%) comprised the DD and UD groups, respectively. The baseline parameters, including age, male gender, and BMI were comparable between the groups, but the plasma glucose, HbA1c levels, and diabetic retinopathy prevalence were higher in the UD group. The risk of developing DKD (log rank test, p < 0.001), an eGFR of < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 (p = 0.001) and proteinuria (p = 0.007) were also higher in the UD group. The unadjusted and adjusted hazard ratios for DKD were 1.760 ((95% CI: 1.323–2.341), p < 0.001) and 1.566 ((95% CI: 1.159–2.115), p = 0.003), respectively, for the UD group. In conclusion, this is the first report showing that UD is a strong risk factor for DKD. The notion that a longer duration of untreated diabetes mellitus is involved strongly in the risk of developing DKD warrants the need for the identification and monitoring of UD patients.
