We also found that prevalence of A/G genotype of TLR4 rs4986790 and CT genotype of TLR4 rs4986791 are significantly higher in patients of diabetes with UTI in comparison to diabetic patients without UTI.
The Asp299Gly polymorphism in TLR4 was associated with increased insulin, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (P < .05), and homeostasis model assessment of β-cell function (P < .05) and family history of diabetes (P = .0002).
Toll-like receptor 4 gene Asp299Gly polymorphism is associated with reductions in vascular inflammation, angiographic coronary artery disease, and clinical diabetes.
We also found that prevalence of A/G genotype of TLR4 rs4986790 and CT genotype of TLR4 rs4986791 are significantly higher in patients of diabetes with UTI in comparison to diabetic patients without UTI.
Although there was no overall difference in the genotype frequencies of TLR4 rs5030717 in diabetes v controls, the genotype frequencies of diabetic dyslipidaemia cases compared with controls were different (p = 0.001).
Overall, the rs5030718 GA and GG genotype frequencies in the entire diabetes cohort were different from those of the controls (p = 0.037), and the frequencies of diabetic nephropathy cases (p = 0.03) and diabetic dyslipidaemia cases were different (p = 0.001) compared with controls.
