Association of Vitamin D Deficiency and Vitamin D Receptor Genetic Variants With Coronary Artery Disease in Type 2 Diabetic Saudi Patients.

ABSTRACT:

Background/aim

Vitamin D deficiency accelerates the onset of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) have been linked to coronary artery disease (CAD). This study aimed to evaluate the association of vitamin D deficiency and VDR polymorphism with CAD in T2DM.

Patients and methods

A total of 150 adult male and female subjects, aged from 40 to 60 years, were divided into three groups, each with 50 subjects; control group, T2DM, and T2DM with CAD. Fasting blood glucose (FBG), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), HDL-C, LDL-C, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OH D) were assessed. VDR genotypes (BsmI, Taq1 and FOK1) were investigated by polymerase chain reaction fragment length polymorphism.

Results

There was a significant negative correlation between serum 25-OH D and FBG, TC, TG, and LDL-C levels, and a positive correlation with HDL-C levels in all diabetic patient groups. The risk of CAD was markedly higher in the group of T2DM with CAD in comparison to the control (p<0.0001) and the T2DM group. Regarding Taq1, there was also a significantly higher risk of CAD in Tt+tt genotypes and t allele in the T2DM with CAD group compared to control (p<0.001, 0.031 respectively). In addition, 25-OH D concentrations and the prevalence of VDR polymorphisms (BsmI, Taq1) were correlated with the risk of CAD.

Conclusion

Deficiency of vitamin D and the prevalence of VDR polymorphisms (BsmI, Taq1) can serve as important markers for CAD.

Project description:BackgroundNumerous research studies have found an association between vitamin D (vitD) status and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes involved in vitD metabolism. It is notable that the influence of these SNPs on 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels might vary in different populations. In this study, we aimed to explore for genetic variants in genes related to vitD metabolism in families with vitD deficiency in Saudi Arabia using whole-exome sequencing (WES).MethodsThis family-based WES study was conducted for 21 families with vitD deficiency (n = 39) in Saudi Arabia. WES was performed for DNA samples, then resulting WES data was filtered and a number of variants were prioritized and validated by Sanger DNA sequencing.ResultsSeveral missense variants in vitD-related genes were detected in families. We determined two variants in low-density lipoprotein 2 gene (LRP2) with one variant (rs2075252) observed in six individuals, while the other LRP2 variant (rs4667591) was detected in 13 subjects. Single variants in 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase (DHCR7) (rs143587828) and melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) (rs1805005) genes were observed in two subjects from two different families. Other variants in group-specific component (GC), cubilin (CUBN), and calcium-sensing receptor (CASR) gene were found in index cases and controls. Polymorphisms in GC (rs9016) and CASR (rs1801726) were found in the majority of family cases (94 and 88%), respectively.ConclusionIn vitD-deficient families in Saudi Arabia, we were able to detect a number of missense exonic variants including variants in GC (rs9016), CUBN (rs1801222), CASR (rs1801726), and LRP2 (rs4667591). However, the existence of these variants was not different between affected family members and non-affected controls. Additionally, we were able to find a mutation in DHCR7 (rs143587828) and a polymorphism in LRP2 (rs2075252), which may affect vitD levels and influence vitD status. Further studies are now required to confirm the association of these variants with vitD deficiency.
