Influencing factors of serum uric acid level and its relationship with SLC 2A9 gene polymorphism / 国际检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the influencing factors of serum uric acid (UA) level and its relationship with SLC2A9 gene polymorphism. Methods A total of 2000people in the health examination center of Yangpu District Central Hospital were selected to examine their blood pressure, blood sugar, blood lipid and other biochemical indicators. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) locus rs2241480 of SLC2A9 gene was detected and analyzed. According to UA level, UA was divided into high UA group (n=217), middle UA group (n=1705) and low UA group (n=78). The biochemical indexes and SLC2A9 genotype of each group were compared, and the relationship between UA and SLC2A9 gene polymorphism was analyzed. Results The prevalence of hyperuricemia (HUA) was 10.85% in physical examination population, 12.92% in males, which was significantly higher than 8.48% in females (P﹤0.05). With the increase of UA level, body mass index (BMI), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), fasting blood glucose (FBG), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cr) increased significantly, and high density lipoprotein (HDL-C-c) increased significantly.) there was a significant decrease, with statistical significance (P﹤0.05). The genotyping of rs2241480 locus in different UA levels showed significant difference (P﹤0.05). Male (OR=1.99), BMI (OR=3.01), SBP (OR=3.77) were independent risk factors for HUA, while HDL-C (OR=0.27) and rs2241480 locus genotype (CC, OR=0.41) were protective factors (P﹤0.05). Conclusion Traditional cardiovascular risk factors such as blood pressure and lipid are independent risk factors for UA level. SLC2A9 gene polymorphism may be associated with the occurrence of HUA.
