In order to investigate the influence of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2(ALDH2) genotype in the pathogenesis of nephropathy due to non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), genotyping of ALDH2 was measured using the PCR-RFLP method in patients with NIDDM on chronic hemodialysis (HD). The results were as follows; 1) The frequency of active ALDH2 was 63% and that of inactive ALDH2 was 37%. 2) The percentage of active ALDH2 was significantly higher in patients with alcohol tolerance than that in those without it (38%). 3) The estimated amount of alcohol consumption in the past was 506 +/- 720 g/week in the active ALDH2 group, and 156 +/- 288 g/week in the inactive ALDH2 group, showing a significant difference between the two groups. 4) Interdialytic body weight gain was larger in patients with active ALDH2 than in those with inactive ALDH2. Since the frequency of active ALDH2 was similar to that in patients without nephropathy, these results do not support the hypothesis that ALDH2 gene polymorphism is involved in the development and persistence of chronic renal failure due to NIDDM. However, salt and water craving in dialysis patients may be influenced partially by an active ALDH2 gene.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.

D011110 Polymorphism, Genetic The regular and simultaneous occurrence in a single interbreeding population of two or more discontinuous genotypes. The concept includes differences in genotypes ranging in size from a single nucleotide site (POLYMORPHISM, SINGLE NUCLEOTIDE) to large nucleotide sequences visible at a chromosomal level.

D003924 Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 A subclass of DIABETES MELLITUS that is not INSULIN-responsive or dependent (NIDDM). It is characterized initially by INSULIN RESISTANCE and HYPERINSULINEMIA; and eventually by GLUCOSE INTOLERANCE; HYPERGLYCEMIA; and overt diabetes. Type II diabetes mellitus is no longer considered a disease exclusively found in adults. Patients seldom develop KETOSIS but often exhibit OBESITY.
