NAMPT-3186C/T polymorphism affects repaglinide response in Chinese patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus

摘要

1. In the present study, we investigated the associations of nico-tinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT)-3186 C/T and -948G/T polymorphisms with the risk of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and their impact on the efficacy of repaglinide in Chinese Han T2DM patients.2. In all, 170 patients with T2DM and 129 healthy controls were genotyped for NAMPT-948G>T and -3186C>T polymorphisms. Thirty-five patients with different NAMPT -3186 C/T genotypes and the same organic anion-transporting polypeptide 1B1 (OATP1B1521) T/C genotype were randomly selected to undergo 8 weeks preprandial repaglinide treatment (1 mg, three times daily). Serum fasting plasma glucose (FPG), post-prandial plasma glucose (PPG), glycated haemoglobin (HbAlc), fasting serum insulin (FINS), post-prandial serum insulin (PINS), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (CHO), homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) were determined before and after repaglinide treatment.3. After repaglinide treatment for 8 consecutive weeks, there were significantly decreases in PFG, PPG, HbAlc, CHO and LDL-C, and increases in FINS, HDL-C and the HDL-C : LDL-C ratio, in T2DM patients. The elevated PINS value in patients with CT genotypes was significantly lower than that in patients with the CC and TT genotypes (P < 0.05) and there were significant differences in CHO between patients with the CT genotype and the CC or TT genotype (P < 0.05).4. The data suggest that the NAMPT-3186C>T polymorphism is significantly associated with plasma levels of PINS and CHO in Chinese T2DM patients with repaglinide monotherapy.
