Abstract
INTRODUCTION The Erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 3 (ERBB3) is involved in autoimmune processes related to type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) pathogenesis. Accordingly, some studies have suggested that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the ERBB3 gene confer risk for T1DM. Proliferation-associated protein 2G4 (PA2G4) is another candidate gene for this disease because it regulates cell proliferation and adaptive immunity. Moreover, PA2G4 regulates ERBB3. To date, no study has evaluated the association of PA2G4 SNPs and T1DM. AIM To evaluate the association of ERBB3 rs705708 (G/A) and PA2G4 rs773120 (C/T) SNPs with T1DM and its clinical and laboratory characteristics. METHODS This case-control study included 976 white subjects from Southern Brazil, categorized into 501 cases with T1DM and 475 non-diabetic controls. The ERBB3 and PA2G4 SNPs were genotyped by allelic discrimination-real-time PCR. RESULTS ERBB3 rs705708 and PA2G4 rs773120 SNPs were not associated with T1DM considering different inheritance models and also when controlling for covariables. However, T1DM patients carrying the ERBB3 rs705708 A allele developed T1DM at an earlier age vs. G/G patients. Interestingly, in the T1DM group, the rs705708 A allele was associated with lower prevalence of diabetic retinopathy and arterial hypertension as well as with improved renal function (higher estimated glomerular filtration rate and lower urinary albumin excretion levels) compared to G/G patients. CONCLUSIONS Although no association was observed between the ERBB3 rs705708 and PA2G4 rs773120 SNPs and T1DM, the rs705708 A allele was associated, for the first time in literature, with lower prevalence of diabetic retinopathy and arterial hypertension. Additionally, this SNP was associated with improved renal function.

Abstract
PURPOSE Genetic factors have been studied to be associated with diabetic retinopathy (DR). This study aimed to investigate the association between the polymorphisms in the osteoproterin (OPG) gene and DR in a Han Chinese population. METHODS There were 475 patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR), 478 type 2 diabetes mellitus without retinopathy (DNR) and 469 healthy controls collected in this study. OPG single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs2073618 and rs3134069 were genotyped by Mass ARRAY MALDI-TOF system. The genotype and allele frequencies were evaluated using the χ2 tests. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated for the risk of genotype and allele. RESULTS There was a statistically significant difference for OPG SNP rs3134069 between DR cases and healthy controls in the allelic model (P = .036, OR = 1.33, 95% CI = 1.02-1.73). The C allele frequency of this polymorphism was 0.154 in the DR cases, whereas it was 0.120 in healthy controls, suggesting a risk effect for DR. SNP rs3134069 had a significant association with DR in the dominant model (P = .038, OR = 1.37, 95% CI = 1.02-1.84), indicating that the CC/AC genotype was more likely to suffer from DR. For rs2073618, no significant difference was identified in the allelic model (P = .632, OR = 0.95, 95% CI = 0.78-1.16) and the four genetic models. CONCLUSIONS This study showed that OPG SNP rs3134069 was associated with DR in the dominant model, suggesting that the OPG gene variant may be involved in the development of DR.
