Abstrakt: Background: Polymorphism in CDH13 gene, which encodes for the adiponectin receptor, T-cadherin, is a genetic risk factor associated with metabolic syndrome. CDH13 rs3865188, which is found in the promoter region of the CDH13 gene, has been found to be associated with metabolic syndrome and its traits in Asian and European Caucasian populations. However, to the best of our knowledge, it was yet to be assessed in a Black African population.
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the association of CHD13 rs3865188 and metabolic syndrome in a Gambian population.
Methods: It was a genetic association study in a cross-sectional design in 136 Gambian participants. CDH13 rs3865188 was genotyped using PCR master mix and sequencing. Blood sugar, triglyceride and high-density lipoprotein levels were determined by standard clinical laboratory methods.
Results: CDH13 rs3865188 was found to be significantly associated metabolic syndrome (p=0.034). Genotype AT appeared to be risk factor for metabolic syndrome (OR=2.41, 95% CI, 1.20-4.84, p=0.014). We found genotypes CC and CA in CHD13 rs3865188 for the first time.
Conclusion: Our study demonstrated significant association between CDH13 rs385618 and metabolic syndrome in a Gambian population (Black African population for the first time). Individuals with genotype AT are at higher risk of developing metabolic syndrome.
Competing Interests: There are no conflicts of interest.
