Short communicationKlotho gene polymorphism of rs3752472 is associated with the risk of urinary calculi in the population of Han nationality in Eastern China
چکیده انگلیسی


- Klotho gene polymorphism of rs3752472 is associated with urolithiasis risk.
- Klotho gene polymorphism of rs650439 is not associated with urolithiasis risk.
- Klotho gene polymorphism of rs577912 is not associated with urolithiasis risk.
- We are the first to reveal the association between Klotho and stone risk in China.

Background/aimsThe incidence of urolithiasis has considerably increased throughout the world in the last two decades. Clinical researches have showed an association between oxidative stress and stone formation. Emerging evidence indicated a novel function for klotho protein in anti-oxidative stress. In this study, we aimed at investigating a possible relationship between klotho gene polymorphisms and the risk of calcium oxalate urolithiasis in the population of Han nationality in Eastern China.MethodsKlotho gene polymorphisms rs3752472 in exon3, rs650439 in intron 4 and rs577912 in intron 1 were investigated in 426 patients with calcium oxalate stones compared with 282 age-matched healthy volunteers with no history of stone formation, using TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assays.ResultsSignificant differences were found between rs3752472 and the risk of nephrolithiasis as CC genotype of rs3752472 klotho polymorphism had almost 2-fold increased stone risk compared with the heterozygote genotype CT and homozygous genotype TT(95% CI = 1.013-2.255, OR = 1.512,p = 0.043).ConclusionOur results showed that the rs3752472 polymorphism of klotho gene is associated with the risk of calcium oxalate urolithiasis and may act as a risk factor during stone formation in our study population.
