AimsTo explore associations between polymorphisms of IGF2-related genes including H19, IGF2, IGF2BP2 and IGF2R and Metabolic syndrome (MetS) susceptibility in the Chinese Han population.Methods66 subjects with MetS and 257 control subjects were collected for inclusion in a case-control study. PCR-RFLP was used to investigate polymorphisms in the H19, IGF2, IGF2BP2 and IGF2R genes. Elisa was used to detect the serum IGF2 concentrations.ResultsFemales carrying the GG and AG genotypes of rs680 (IGF2) exhibited a lower risk of MetS, compared with those harboring AA (adjusted OR = 0.388, p = 0.027), while GG and AG genotypes were associated with lower fasting glucose and HbA1c. In males, the Waist-to-Hip Ratio (WHR) and the level of TG were significantly higher in GG and AG genotypes than in the AA genotype of rs680 in IGF2. Levels of HDL-c were lower in men with GG and AG genotypes compared with those carrying the AA genotype. Serum IGF2 concentrations did not change among different genotypes. Finally, multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) analysis identified interactions between four polymorphisms: rs3741279 (H19), rs680 (IGF2), rs1470579 (IGF2BP2) and rs629849 (IGF2R).ConclusionsOur study suggests that IGF2-related genes including H19, IGF2, IGF2BP2 and IGF2R genes may play pivotal roles in the development of MetS.

The Relationship

Aim. Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease with a complex etiology, and psoriasis vulgaris (PsV) is the most common type of psoriasis. Recent studies suggest the relationship between psoriasis and metabolic syndrome in different ethnicities. This study is aimed at evaluating the association of metabolism-related gene variants with the risk of PsV in Chinese Han population. Material and Methods. PsV patients (1030) and healthy controls (965) were enrolled in this study. Eighteen single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) previously reported to be significantly associated with metabolic syndrome were selected. SNPs were detected by next-generation sequencing. Results. Seven SNPs were significantly associated with PsV: rs805303 ( P = 0.012 , OR = 0.85 ), rs3177928 ( P = 1.37 × 10 − 15 , OR = 2.51 ), and rs2247056 ( P = 3.73 × 10 − 4 , OR = 0.67 ) located in the HLA gene region; rs1047781 ( P = 0.012 , OR = 1.18 ), rs281379 ( P = 0.014 , OR = 1.71 ), and rs492602 ( P = 0.005 , OR = 1.86 ) located in the FUT2 region; and rs2303138 ( P = 0.014 , OR = 1.18 ) located in the LNPEP region. After stratified analysis, rs805303 ( P = 0.017 , OR = 0.74 ) and rs2303138 ( P = 0.041 , OR = 1.30 ) were associated with PsVs when HLA-C ∗ 06 : 02 was positive, and rs805303 ( P = 5.62 × 10 − 5 , OR = 0.68 ), rs3177928 ( P = 0.003 , OR = 1.75 ), rs281379 ( P = 0.034 , OR = 1.96 ), and rs492602 ( P = 0.025 , OR = 2.04 ) were associated with PsVs when HLA-C ∗ 06 : 02 was negative. Conclusion. PsV and metabolic syndrome may have overlapped susceptible genes in Chinese Han population.

The Future

ObjectiveRecent studies have found that the levels of plasma amino acids, such as branched-chain amino acids and aromatic amino acids, were associated with visceral obesity, insulin resistance, future development of diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. However, few studies have involved a Chinese Han population. This study aimed to examine the association between amino acid profile and metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components in the Chinese Han population.MethodsThis is a cross-sectional study, which enrolled a cohort of 473 participants from a community. We employed the isotope internal standard method to determine the plasma concentrations of 28 amino acids using high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS). Participants were divided into MetS (n = 72) and non-MetS groups (n = 401) to analyze the association between amino acids and MetS and its components.ResultsThe prevalence of MetS was 15.2% according to the criteria. Plasma concentrations of isoleucine (Ile), leucine (Leu), valine (Val), tyrosine (Tyr), tryptophan (Trp), phenylalanine (Phe), glutamic acid (Glu), aspartic acid (Asp), alanine (Ala), histidine (His), methionine (Met), asparagine (Asn), and proline (Pro) were significantly higher in the MetS group than those in the non-MetS group (P < 0.05), but taurine (Tau) was significantly lower (P < 0.05). When MetS components were increased, the concentrations of these 13 amino acids significantly increased (P < 0.05), but Tau concentration was significantly decreased (P < 0.05). We extracted the amino acid profile by principal component analysis (PCA), PC1 and PC2, which extracted from the 14 amino acids, were significantly associated with MetS (odds ratio, 95% confidence interval: 1.723, 1.325–2.085 and 1.325, 1.043–1.684, respectively). A total of 260 non-MetS participants were followed up effectively, and 42 participants developed new-onset MetS within 5 years. We found that the amino acid profile of PC1 was linked to the occurrence of future MetS. Decreased Tau was correlated with the future development of MetS.ConclusionParticipants with MetS exhibit an abnormal amino acid profile, and its components gradually increase when these amino acids are altered. Amino acid PCA profile can be employed for assessing and monitoring MetS risk. Finally, decreased Tau may be linked to the future development of MetS.
