| Description | Fructosamines are products of non-enzymatic glycation formed in accelerated rate during hyperglycemia. As precursors of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) fructosamines supposedly contribute to the development of glucotoxic injury. Mechanism of enzymatic deglycation of proteins in vivo by fructosamine-3-kinase (FN3K) was described recently. The -385A/G (rs3859206) and 900C/G (rs1056534) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the FN3K gene were found to have potential functional impact.The aim was to study relationship between polymorphisms in FN3K gene, progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN) and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality of diabetics. Based on our results, we can identify genetic variability in the FN3K gene as a factor influencing progression of DN and cardiovascular mortality of diabetics. |
