Popis: Background Both Genome-wide associations and our previous study have shown that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) and human leukocyte antigen complex class II HLA-DQα-chain 1 (HLA-DQA1) gene were identified to be associated with primary membranous nephropathy (PMN). However, whether these SNPs affect clinical manifestation and renal outcome for PMN patients is poorly defined. Here, we evaluated whether there is an association between these SNPs and clinical manifestations and renal outcomes of PMN in a western Chinese cohort. Methods Seven SNPs within PLA2R and one SNP in HLA-DQA1 were selected in our study. Clinical data from 314 patients with PMN were collected and the relationship between the genotype and phenotype was evaluated. A total of 186 patients had follow-up data. We assessed the treatment responses and renal outcomes between patients with these gene polymorphisms after a median follow-up of 18.6 months. Results Eight SNPs were not associated with clinical manifestations of PMN patients (Pc P = 0.008, Pc = 0.064, OR = 1.821). After treatment for PMN, the SR group (including CR and PR) had lower serum creatinine level (68.4 ± 18.8 μmol/L vs. 122.8 ± 126.6 μmol/L, P P P = 0.037) and urinary protein (0.23 (0.76,1.05) g/d vs. 3.01 (2.06,7.95) g/d, P 2 vs. 77.1 ± 35.3 ml/min/1.73m2, P P Conclusions Rs3828323 may influence hypertension and renal outcome in patients with PMN. Further research is needed to explore the mechanism for this genotype-disease phenotype association.
