Abstract:
INTRODUCTION: Insulin resistance (IR) is a disease with genetic susceptibility characterized by the increase in storage and irregular body fat distribution, and impaired production of adipokines. OBJECTIVE: The objective was to investigate the relationship between 3'UTR+62G>A RETN gene polymorphism, with adiponectin-resistin index (ARindex), adiposity, and inmuno-metabolic markers. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, 260 individuals characterized as Mexican-Mestizo and classified in lean and overweight, and IR and without-IR, were included. Anthropometrics, body composition, body fat distribution and inflammation and metabolic markers were measured by routine methods, RETN 3'UTR+62G>A alleles were identified by PCR-RFLP and soluble insulin, total adiponectin and resistin were measured by ELISA methods. RESULTS: The +62G allele frequencies for lean and overweight individuals were different P=0.0343 (95.4% and 98.4%, respectively). The lean GA genotype carriers showed significant low measures of ARindex, adiposity, and inmuno-metabolic markers, than the GG genotype carriers. We found differences between individuals with IR and without-IR: in ARindex (P=0.002), adiponectin (P=0.002) and resistin levels (P=0.033): 1.102 ± 0.03, 5.167 ± 0.36 ug/mL and 8.827 ± 0.42 ng/mL versus 1.336 ± 0.07, 3.577 ± 0.34 ug/mL and 10.480 ± 0.65 ng/mL. Showed correlations with inflammation markers, distribution and body fat storage (r=0.262 to 0.414), P< 0.05. CONCLUSIONS: The present data suggest that in a Mexican-mestizo population the RETN +62G>A polymorphism is associated with overweight. The presence of the +62A allele was associated with increase of total adiponectin, ARindex, resistin levels, metabolic markers and body fat storage. ARindex can be an early indicator of insulin resistance. Introducción: La resistencia a la insulina (RI) se caracteriza por susceptibilidad genética, incremento en la adiposidad y distribución irregular de grasa corporal, con alteración en la producción de adipocinas. Objetivo: Investigar la asociación del polimorfismo 3’UTR+62G>A en resistina con RI, índice adiponectina-resistina (ARindex), adiposidad y marcadores inmuno-metabólicos. Métodos: En un estudio transversal a 260 mestizos-mexicanos, clasificados con peso normal, exceso de peso, sin y con RI, se les evaluó: composición corporal, distribución de masa grasa y marcadores inmuno-metabólicos. Los alelos del polimorfismo 3’UTR+62G>A en resistina se identificaron por PCR-RFLP. La concentración sérica de insulina, adiponectina total y resistina se midieron por la técnica de ELISA. Resultados: Las frecuencias del alelo +62G para los individuos con peso normal y exceso de peso, fueron (95.4% y 98.4%, respectivamente) P=0.0343. Los portadores del genotipo GA con peso normal mostraron valores menores del ARindex, adiposidad y marcadores inmuno-metabólicos comparados con los portadores del genotipo GG. Se observó diferencia entre los individuos sin y con RI en el ARindex (P=0.002), concentración sérica de adiponectina (P=0.002) y resistina (P=0.033): 1.102±0.03, 5.167±0.36ug/mL y 8.827±0.42ng/mL versus 1.336±0.07, 3.577±0.34ug/mL y 10.480±0.65ng/mL, respectivamente. Los marcadores inmuno-metabólicos, reserva y distribución de grasa corporal correlacionan con ARindex (r=0.262 a 0.414), PA en los individuos mestizos-mexicanos con exceso de peso. El alelo +62A se asoció con incremento de adiponectina total, valores menores del ARindex, concentración de resistina, marcadores metabólicos y reserva de grasa corporal. El ARindex puede ser un indicador temprano de RI.
