The objective of the present study was to evaluate the simultaneous relationship between <i>MTHFR</i> methylation and <i>MTHFR</i> C6TT7 and A1298C polymorphisms with metabolic, inflammatory and oxidative stress parameters related to microvascular complications, diabetic retinopathy (DR) and diabetic nephropathy (DN) in diabetic patients.
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.
The present study has investigated the role of endothelial nitric oxide (eNOS) G894T polymorphism and its interaction with methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T and A1298C variants on the predisposition to diabetic nephropathy and its progression.
To find whether polymorphisms of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T and A1298C are risk factors for diabetic nephropathy (DN) among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients from Western Iran.
The association between two common mutations C677T and A1298C in human methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene and the risk for diabetic nephropathy in type II diabetic patients.
