IMPACT OF ANGIOTENSIN-CONVERTING ENZYME GENE POLYMORPHISM ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF INSULIN RESISTANCE SYNDROME

https://doi.org/10.17650/1818-8338-2013-2-14-17

Abstract

Objective: to analyze the distribution of components of insulin resistance (IR) syndrome and to study the frequency of their combinations in relation to the genotypes and allelic variants of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene.


Subjects and methods. A group of clinically healthy patients (50 women and 42 men) with different genotypes of the ACE gene was examined.
The distribution of IR syndrome components and the frequency of their combinations were analyzed in relation to the genotypes and allelic
variants of the ACE gene.


Results. A group of D allele carriers compared to A allele ones showed a pronounced tendency for the frequency of IR to reduce due to the
higher proportion of patients with complete IR syndrome. This observation becomes statistically significant in the assessment of homozygous variants of the ACE gene. At the same time dyslipidemia and hypertension in the presence of IR significantly more frequently occurred in patients with the DD genotype than in those with genotype II.


Conclusion. There was a marked predominance of the manifestations of IR syndrome with a complete set of components in the DD genotypic
group, which confirms the significant strong association between ACE gene polymorphism and IR syndrome.
