▶Polymorphisms in the CTSH gene may influence the progression of diabetic retinopathy: a candidate-gene study in the Danish Cohort of Pediatric Diabetes 1987 (DCPD1987)AssociationN=130Steffen U. Thorsen et al.(2015)· Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology
This candidate gene study of 130 Danish children with type 1 diabetes examined associations between 20 diabetes-related SNPs and diabetic retinopathy progression over 16 years. The CTSH/rs3825932 variant was associated with reduced risk of progression to proliferative diabetic retinopathy (OR=0.20, p=2.4×10⁻³, p_adjust=0.048), while ERBB3/rs2292239 was associated with increased risk of two-step DR progression (OR=2.76, p=7.5×10⁻³, p_adjust=0.15). The CTSH association remained significant after multiple testing correction.
About SELP
This gene encodes a 140 kDa protein that is stored in the alpha-granules of platelets and Weibel-Palade bodies of endothelial cells. This protein redistributes to the plasma membrane during platelet activation and degranulation and mediates the interaction of activated endothelial cells or platelets with leukocytes. The membrane protein is a calcium-dependent receptor that binds to sialylated forms of Lewis blood group carbohydrate antigens on neutrophils and monocytes. Alternative splice variants may occur but are not well documented. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
