Predisposing factors for T2DM are mainly genetic and environmental. Genetic polymorphism of cytokines like tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) is suggestive of interference with insulin-sensitive glucose uptake and induces insulin resistance that ultimately could lead to T2DM. In this study, we assessed the effect of TNF-α (−308) G/A gene polymorphism and its association with the development of T2DM in an Ethiopian population.Methods: An institutional-based cross-sectional study was conducted on study subjects with T2DM and non-diabetic healthy controls. DNA was extracted and genotyping was carried out by using amplification refractory mutation system polymerase chain reaction. A genetic-polymorphism on TNF-α (−308) G/A with T2DM was evaluated by logistic regression and Student’s t-test. A P-value Results: In the present study, we observed a significant association between T2DM and TNF-α (−308) gene polymorphism’s GG genotype [χ2 test P = 0.005, OR (95% CI) =2.667 (1.309–5.45d8)]. In contrast, no statistically significant differences were observed in the frequencies of genotypes AA and AG (χ2 test P=0.132 and 0.067, respectively). Moreover, T2DM individuals had higher concentrations of lipid profiles for those carrying the TNF-α (−308) GG genotype as compared to the control group.Conclusion: TNF-α (−308) genetic polymorphism may be implicated in the genetic susceptibility for, as well as the development of T2DM and lipid metabolism in the Ethiopian population. Therefore, a large-scale study and early screening of TNF-α (−308) genetic polymorphism may help in early management and control of diabetes and related outcomes.Keywords: TNF-α, T2DM, North West EthiopiaAyelign BGenetu MWondmagegn TAdane GNegash MBerhane NDove Medical Pressarticletnf-αt2dmand north west ethiopiaSpecialties of internal medicineRC581-951ENDiabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy, Vol Volume 12, Pp 2453-2459 (2019) |
