Association between the genetic variant in the vitamin D pathway (rs2282679), circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels, insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome criteria.
Nutrición Hospitalaria : Organo Oficial de la Sociedad Española de Nutrición Parenteral y Enteral 2023 October 28
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: some studies have reported links between 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and the presence of metabolic syndrome. The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether an association exists among 25-hydroxyvitamin D, rs2282679 of the GC gene and metabolic syndrome (MS).
METHODS: the study involved a population of 134 postmenopausal obese females. Measurements of anthropometric parameters, blood pressure, bone turnover markers, fasting blood glucose, insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), lipid profile, C-reactive protein and prevalence of MS were recorded. Genotype of CG gene polymorphism (rs2282679) was evaluated.
RESULTS: insulin (delta: 4.6 ± 0.9 mUI/l; p = 0.02), triglycerides (delta: 21.6 ± 2.9 mg/dl; p = 0.04) and HOMA-IR (delta: 1.1 ± 0.9 unit; p = 0.02) were lower in TT subjects than TG + GG patients. The percentages of individuals who had MS (OR = 2.80, 95 % CI = 1.39-5.65; p = 0.02), hypertriglyceridemia (OR = 2.39, 95 % CI = 1.44-5.96; p = 0.01), and hyperglycemia (OR = 2.72, 95 % CI = 1.23-6.00; p = 0.43) were higher in G allele carriers. Logistic regression analysis showed an increased risk of MS in G allele carriers (OR = 2.36, 95 % CI = 1.11-5.91, p = 0.02) and an increased risk of 25-hydroxyvitamin D deficiency (< 20 ng/ml) (OR = 2.43, 95 % CI = 1.13-6.69, p = 0.02), too.
CONCLUSIONS: a negative association among G allele and insulin resistance, hypertriglyceridemia, deficiency of 25 hydroxyvitamin D levels and MS was reported in this population.
