A Molecular Insight of the Role of PIN-1 Promoter Polymorphism (- 667C > T; rs2233679) in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients with Secondary Hyperparathyroidism.

ABSTRACT: Murine studies stipulate Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase NIMA-interacting 1 (PIN-1) as a key mediator of PTH mRNA stability and is acknowledged by genome-wide-association-studies as secondary hyperparathyroidism defining trait in chronic kidney disease. Therefore, we hypothesize that molecular variants of the PIN-1 gene might affect the incidence and predisposition to secondary hyperparathyroidism in chronic renal insufficiency. A total of 281 adult participants, including 124 chronic kidney disease patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism and 157 healthy controls, were genotyped using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method to unravel the effects of genetic risk loci (PIN-1 gene; - 667C > T; rs2233679) on the susceptibility to secondary hyperparath
