PPARD rs2016520 (T/C) and NOS1AP rs12742393 (A/C) polymorphisms affect therapeutic efficacy of nateglinide in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Abstract
Abstract Background Genetic polymorphisms in the PPARD and NOS1AP is associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); however, there is no evidence about its impact on the therapeutic efficacy of nateglinide. This study was designed to investigate a potential association of PPARD rs2016520 (T/C) and NOS1AP rs12742393 (A/C) polymorphisms with efficacy of nateglinide in newly diagnosed Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods Sixty patients with newly diagnosed T2DM were enrolled to identify PPARD rs2016520 and NOS1AP rs12742393 genotypes using the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay (PCR–RFLP). All subjects were treated with nateglinide (360 mg/day) for 8 weeks. Anthropometric measurements, clinical laboratory tests were obtained at baseline and after 8 weeks of nateglinide treatment. Results After nateglinide treatment for 8 consecutive weeks, patients with at least one C allele of PPARD rs2016520 showed a smaller decrease in post plasma glucose (PPG), homeostasis model assessment for beta cell function (HOMA-B) than those with the TT genotype did (P < 0.05). In patients with the AA genotype of NOS1AP rs12742393, the drug showed better efficacy with respect to levels of fasting plasma glucose (FPG), fasting serum insulin (FINS), HOMA-B and homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) than in patients with the AC + CC genotype (P < 0.05). NOS1AP rs12742393 genotype distribution and allele frequency were associated with responsiveness of nateglinide treatment (P < 0.05). Conclusions The PPARD rs2016520 and NOS1AP rs12742393 polymorphisms were associated with nateglinide monotherapy efficacy in Chinese patients with newly diagnosed T2DM.
