A case-control study. PG - 995-8 AB - SELL (L-selectin) is a candidate gene for several complex diseases including diabetes mellitus and renal failure. Our aim was to investigate the involvement of P213S SELL gene polymorphism (rs2229569) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and related end stage renal disease (ESRD). Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients without ESRD (n=250) or with ESRD (n=90), ESRD patients without diabetes (n=119) and sex and age matched healthy subjects (n=459) were analyzed in this study. DNA samples from all these subjects were genotyped for the P213S polymorphism by PCR-RFLP technique. Statistical analysis indicated that SELL P213S genotypes and alleles were similar distributed in the patients and control groups (ORSS=0.37, CI 95%: 0.131>0.372>1.06, p=0.05, Yate's correction p=0.09, for T2DM patients without ESRD, ORSS=2.04, CI 95%: 0.365>2.047>1.465, p=0.4, Yate's correction p=0.67, for T2DM patients with ESRD and ORSS=1, CI95%: 0.198>1>5.057, p=1, Yate's correction p=0.67, for non-diabetic with ESRD patients). Also, no significant differences were noticed when we compared the ESRD subjects with diabetes vs. non-diabetic ones (OR=1.798, CI 95%: 0.392>1.798>8.245, p=0.44, Yate's correction p=0.7). No statistically significant results were found in order to sustain the hypothesis of association between SELL gene P213S polymorphism, type 2 diabetes mellitus and end stage renal disease.
