Abstract | Introduction: Adrenomedullin (AM) is a vasodilatory peptide that acts
directly via cAMP and indirectly via endothelial nitric oxide. It also facilitates
the differentiation of pre-adipocytes and affects lipolysis and glucose uptake.
Therefore, we investigated the association of common genetic variants in
the gene encoding adrenomedullin (ADM) with hypertension and
dysglycaemia in the Hong Kong Chinese population.
Methods: We genotyped 4 SNPs of ADM, rs3814700, rs11042725,
rs34354539 and rs4910118, in 1936 subjects from the Hong Kong
Cardiovascular Risk Factor Prevalence Study-2 (CRISPS-2), which has a
median follow-up time of 6.4 years. Dysglycaemia includes impaired fasting
glucose (≥6.1 mmol/L), impaired glucose tolerance (2h glucose ≥7.8 mmol/L)
and diabetes.
Results: The minor T allele of SNP rs4910118 was significantly associated
with lower systolic blood pressure (β=-0.057, P=0.0079) and mean arterial
pressure (β=-0.054, P=0.014) at baseline after adjusting for covariates, but
not at follow-up. However, none of the SNPs was significantly associated with prevalent or incident hypertension. Although dysglycaemia was not
significantly associated with any of the SNPs at baseline, the minor A allele
of the SNP rs11042725 was significantly associated with the development
of dysglycaemia during follow-up (OR=1.30, P=0.018) and dysglycaemia
at follow-up (OR=1.24, P=0.0093), after adjusting for covariates.
Conclusion: Our study provides preliminary evidence for a role of the
adrenomedullin gene in influencing blood pressure and the development of
diabetes. |
