Abstract
New-onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT) is an important complication after kidney transplantation. The etiology of the malady is multifactorial and includes both environmental and genetic factors. NODAT is a polygenic disease and many single-nucleotide polymorphisms could constitute potential risk factors. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) and P450 oxidoreductase (POR) play a central role in the control of energy metabolism in humans. Some recent data highlighted a possible functional impact of two single-nucleotide polymorphisms in PPARα (rs4253728 G>A and rs4823613 A>G) and one coding variant in POR (rs1057868; POR*28; A503V) on the activity of their respective encoded proteins. In the present study, we assessed the association between these variants and the risk of developing NODAT after kidney transplantation.
