  • The genetic predisposition of complement C5 gene polymorphisms in proliferative diabetic retinopathy in Chongqing Han population

    Objective To observe the genetic predisposition of complement C5 gene polymorphisms in proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) in Chongqing Han population. Methods 400 type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients (case group) and 600 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (control group) were enrolled in this study. There were 8 PDR patients in case group. All the subjects were Han ethnic people. The immune-related representative SNP locus of C5 gene including rs2269067, rs7040033, rs7027797 were screened by linkage disequilibrium analysis. Locus rs1017119 was selected by TagSNP and was around the above three loci. Subjects′ peripheral venous blood was collected and DNA was extracted. Genotyping was examined by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. The level of C5 plasma protein was measured by enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay. Results The frequency of GG genotype of rs2269067 was significantly increased in PDR patients in cases group compared with controls (Pc=3.4×10-5, OR=1.87, 95%CI=1.43 - 2.44;P=3.1×10-6). There was no differences in frequency of G, CC and CG genotype of rs2269067 between two groups (P=1.4×10-4, 1.000, 1.0×10-6). There were no differences in frequency of G, CC, CG, GG genotype of rs7040033, rs1017119, and rs7027797 between two groups (P > 0.05). The production of C5 plasma protein was significantly increased in case group as compare with control group (P=0.0004). An increased production of C5 plasma protein was observed in rs2269067 GG genotype cases compared to CG or CC cases (P=0.003, 0.001). Conclusion C5 rs2269067 GG genotype may be associated with the PDR of T2D in Chongqing Han population.
