Abstract:

Objective To study the relationship between endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS) Glu298Asp gene polymorphism and chronic periodontitis(CP) with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM). Methods DNA from patients’buccal swabs of CP, CP with T2DM, T2DM and health was isolated and extracted. The eNOS Glu298Asp gene polymorphism were assessed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP) respectively. Results The distribution of eNOS Glu298Asp genotype in CP group, T2DM group, CP with T2DM group and health group showed statistical differences(掊2=18.503, P=0.005), and the gene frequency showed statistical differences(掊2= 8.243, P=0.041). Compared health group to CP with T2DM group, OR value of the genetype T was 0.962, 95% confidence interval lay in between 0.737 to 1.256, which showed T maybe a protective factor. While OR value of the genetype G was 1.043, 95% confidence interval lay in between 0.781 to 1.391, which showed G maybe a risk factor. However, neither T nor G was statistically significant. Conclusion Based on these findings, there are some association between eNOS Glu298Asp polymorphism and the risk of CP group, T2DM group, CP with T2DM group.
