Predisposition of SOD1 , GPX1 , CAT genetic variants and their haplotypes in cataractogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus in Pakistan
Acta Diabetologica(2022)
摘要
Aims Cataract formation is accelerated by hyperglycemia due to the excessive production of oxidative stress. This study aimed to examine the underlaying role of glutathione peroxidase 1 ( GPX1 ) rs1800668, catalase ( CAT ) rs1001179 and superoxide dismutase 1 ( SOD1 ) 50 bp Indel promotor region variants in the pathogenesis of cataract in patients with diabetes. Methods A population-based case-control study of n =680 individuals was conducted which comprised of four respective groups: type 2 diabetes mellitus, diabetic cataract, senile cataract patients and controls. Screening of genotypes was performed by allele-specific (AS) and conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Statistical testing was carried out using SPSS© 20.0, MedCal© and SNPStats© software’s. Bioinformatics analysis of linkage disequilibrium was done by HaploView© software 7.0. Results GPX1 (rs1800668) showed significant association with higher susceptibility of opacification in type 2 diabetes mellitus ( χ 2 =23.0, Adjusted OR=1.63, 95% CI: 1.05–2.49, p <0.001). A protective role was anticipated by CAT variant (rs1001179) for the development of resistance against the pathogenicity of cataract with diabetes ( χ 2 = 107, Adjusted OR=0.17, 95% CI: 0.10–0.29, p <0.001). Linkage disequilibrium (LD) plot of GPX1 and CAT variants revealed that CTC-CTT haplotypes demonstrated the presence of linkage (Dʹ=1.0) and co-inheritance (LOD=13.84) in patients of diabetic cataract. Conclusions GPX1 (rs1800668) variant may serve as an antioxidant biomarker for the assessment of risk for cataract in type 2 diabetes mellitus. GPX1 enzyme owed an antioxidant activity which can reduce the oxidative stress and hence could develop resistance in cataractogenesis. The findings could be beneficial as a potential target to the future pharmacogenomic studies of cataract prevention and eradication in diabetes mellitus.
