OBJECTIVE: The association between polymorphisms in candidate genes related to lipoprotein metabolism and the reduction in plasma triglyceride (TG) in response to fenofibrate treatment was evaluated in subjects with type 2 diabetes treated with micronized fenofibrate (200 mg/day) for at least 3 years in the Diabetes Atherosclerosis Intervention Study. METHODS: The cholesteryl ester transfer protein Taq1B, LPL S447X, hepatic lipase -514 C<--T, peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptors alpha (PPARA) L162V and G/C intron 7 polymorphisms and the apolipoprotein E2/E3/E4 alleles were genotyped using PCR and restriction enzyme digestion. Subjects were divided into high TG-responders (with > 30% TG relative reduction after treatment) and low TG-responders. RESULTS: The frequency of the PPARA intron 7 G/G genotype was higher in high TG-responders than in low TG-responders (85% vs. 69%, P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between the percentage of high TG-responders and low TG-responders for any of the other genetic polymorphisms examined. In stepwise logistic regression, baseline TG and only the PPARA intron 7 polymorphism among the others were selected in the model as significant predictors of TG-response (odds ratio: 3.10, 95% CI: 1.28-7.52, P = 0.012 for PPARA polymorphism). With age, gender, body mass index, smoking status and HbA1c as additional factors, baseline TG (P< 0.0001), intron 7 (P = 0.013), body mass index (P = 0.040) and LPL-S447X (P = 0.084) were significant predictors of TG-response. CONCLUSION: These results indicate that elevated baseline TG levels and PPARA gene intron 7 G/G genotype were associated with TG reduction > 30% after fenofibrate treatment in patients with type 2 diabetes.
