These results show an evident association between the MTHFR C677T polymorphism and T2DM in Moroccan patients but no significant association with the MTHFR A1298C polymorphism.
Our study for the first time demonstrated a synergistic effect between ACE I/D with either MTHFR C677T or A1298C polymorphism on the increased risk of DN among patients with T2DM.
We investigated the association of C677T and A1298C MTHFR gene variants and altered homocysteine concentrations in Lebanese and Bahraini type 2 diabetes (T2DM) DN patients.
Synergistic effects of the MTHFR C677T and A1298C polymorphisms on the increased risk of micro- and macro-albuminuria and progression of diabetic nephropathy among Iranians with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
This study aimed to investigate the influence of the C677T and A1298C polymorphisms of the MTHFR gene on the development of diabetic nephropathy in Caucasian patients with type 2 diabetes.
The frequency of two MTHFR mutations, a recently described mutation in the human MTHFR gene A1298C and C677T, whose association with DN is already known, was determined in an Israeli Jewish population with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM).
