- MicroRNAs 1915-3p, 2861, and 4532 Are Associated with Long-Term Renal Function Decline in Type 1 Diabetes(2019) MONTEIRO, Maria Beatriz; SANTOS-BEZERRA, Daniele P.; PELAES, Tatiana S.; VAIDYA, Vishal S.; CORREA-GIANNELLA, Maria Lucia
- Glutathione peroxidase 4 functional variant rs713041 modulates the risk for cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy in individuals with type 1 diabetes(2019) ADMONI, Sharon Nina; SANTOS-BEZERRA, Daniele Pereira; PEREZ, Ricardo Vesoni; PATENTE, Thiago Andrade; MONTEIRO, Maria Beatriz; CAVALEIRO, Ana Mercedes; PARISI, Maria Candida; NETO, Arnaldo Moura; PAVIN, Elizabeth Joao; QUEIROZ, Marcia Silva; NERY, Marcia; CORREA-GIANNELLA, Maria LuciaCardiac autonomic neuropathy is a neglected diabetic chronic complication for which genetic predictors are rarely reported. Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of microvascular complications, and glutathione peroxidase 4 is involved in the detoxification of peroxides and of reactive oxygen species. Thus, the association of a functional variant in the gene encoding glutathione peroxidase 4 (rs713041) with this diabetic complication was investigated in 341 individuals with type 1 diabetes evaluated for cardiac autonomic neuropathy status (61.7% women, 34 [27-42] years old; diabetes duration: 21 [15-27] years; HbA1c: 8.3% [7.4-9.4]; as median [interquartile interval]). Cardiac autonomic neuropathy was present in 29% of the participants. There was an inverse association of the minor T allele of rs713041 with cardiac autonomic neuropathy (odds ratio = 0.39; 95% confidence interval = 0.17-0.90; p = 0.0271) after adjustment for potential confounders. The functional glutathione peroxidase 4 variant rs713041 modulated the risk for cardiac autonomic neuropathy in the studied population with type 1 diabetes.
- Allelic variations in genes belonging to glutathione system increase proliferative retinopathy risk in type 1 diabetes individuals(2019) PEREZ, Ricardo Vessoni; MACHADO, Cleide Guimaraes; SANTOS-BEZERRA, Daniele Pereira; ADMONI, Sharon Nina; PATENTE, Thiago Andrade; MONTEIRO, Maria Beatriz; CAVALEIRO, Ana Mercedes; QUEIROZ, Marcia Silva; NERY, Marcia; CORREA-GIANNELLA, Maria LuciaAims: Given the participation of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications, we evaluated, in type 1 diabetes (T1D) individuals, the association between diabetic retinopathy (DR) and functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in regulatory regions of two genes belonging to the antioxidant glutathione (GSH) system: rs17883901 in GCLC and rs713041 in GPX4. Methods: A cross-sectional case-control study included 288 individuals (61% women, 34[+/- 11] years old, diabetes duration of 22[+/- 9] years, mean [+/- SD]) sorted according to DR stages: absence of DR (ADR), non proliferative DR (NPDR) and proliferative DR (PDR). SNPs were genotyped by real-time PCR using fluorescent labelled probes. Logistic regression models with adjustment for confounding covariates were employed. Results: The presence of at least one T-allele of rs17883901 in GCLC was an independent risk factor for PDR (OR 4.13, 95% CI 1.38-13.66, p = 0.014) in a polytomous regression model (PDR versus ADR). The presence of at least one T-allele of rs713041 in GPX4 conferred protection against PDR (OR 0.30, 95% CI 0.11-0.80, p = 0.017) in female T1D individuals. Conclusion: The functional SNPs rs17883901 and rs713041 modulate the risk for PDR in the studied population of T1D individuals, widening the spectrum of candidate genes for this complication.
- Genetic variants in DNMT1 and the risk of cardiac autonomic neuropathy in women with type 1 diabetes(2019) SANTOS-BEZERRA, Daniele Pereira; ADMONI, Sharon Nina; MORI, Rosana Cristina; PELAES, Tatiana Souza; PEREZ, Ricardo Vesoni; MACHADO, Cleide Guimaraes; MONTEIRO, Maria Beatriz; PARISI, Maria Candida; PAVIN, Elizabeth Joao; QUEIROZ, Marcia Silva; PASSARELLI, Marisa; MACHADO, Ubiratan Fabres; CORREA-GIANNELLA, Maria LuciaAims/Introduction Epigenetics participate in the pathogenesis of metabolic memory, a situation in which hyperglycemia exerts prolonged deleterious effects even after its normalization. We tested the hypothesis that genetic variants in an epigenetic gene could predispose to diabetes complications. Material and Methods We assessed the frequency of five single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the gene encoding deoxyribonucleic acid methytransferase 1 (DNMT1; rs8112895, rs7254567, rs11085721, rs17291414 and rs10854076), and their associations with diabetic kidney disease, retinopathy, distal polyneuropathy and autonomic cardiovascular neuropathy in 359 individuals with long-term type 1 diabetes. Results None of the single-nucleotide polymorphisms studied was significantly associated with the presence of chronic complications in the overall population. However, after sex stratification, the minor allele C of rs11085721 conferred risk for cardiovascular neuropathy in women after adjustment for confounding variables (odds ratio 2.32; 95% confidence interval 1.26-4.33; P = 0.006). Conclusions The fact that heterozygous mutations in DNMT1 are associated with hereditary sensory autonomic neuropathy provides plausibility to the present finding. If confirmed in independent samples, it suggests that genetic variants in epigenetic genes might predispose to more or fewer epigenetic changes in the face of similar metabolic derangements triggered by hyperglycemia, constituting the ""genetics of epigenetics"" for microvascular diabetes complications.
