Association between variants in vitamin D‐binding protein gene and vitamin D deficiency among pregnant women in china
AssociationN=815Jinju Dong et al.(2020)· Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis

This case-control association study of 815 Chinese pregnant women identified five SNPs in the GC (vitamin D-binding protein) gene significantly associated with serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentration: rs17467825, rs4588, rs2282679, rs2298850, and rs1155563. Mean 25(OH)D level was 15.67±7.98 ng/mL with 75% prevalence of deficiency. An XGBoost model incorporating these SNPs plus environmental factors achieved AUC 0.828 for predicting 25(OH)D deficiency risk. The study suggests maternal vitamin D deficiency may increase macrosomia risk (12 of 16 macrosomic infants had deficient mothers).

About NADSYN1

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is a coenzyme in metabolic redox reactions, a precursor for several cell signaling molecules, and a substrate for protein posttranslational modifications. NAD synthetase (EC 6.3.5.1) catalyzes the final step in the biosynthesis of NAD from nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide (NaAD).[supplied by OMIM, Apr 2004]
