RESUMO

Vitamin D has been considered a strong contributing factor to type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Many studies have investigated polymorphisms in the VDR gene in association with T1DM in different populations, but there are still conflicting findings. This study aimed to evaluate the association of four variants in the VDR gene (rs7975232, rs1544410, rs731236, and rs2228570) with T1DM risk and vitamin D levels within a population from North Region, Brazil, as well as the influence of genomic ancestry on T1DM. A total of 65 T1DM patients and 83 non-T1DM patients were enrolled in this study. VDR gene polymorphisms were assessed using Sanger sequencing analysis. Genomic ancestry was analyzed using a set of 61 ancestry-informative markers. T1DM patients showed higher European genomic contribution and lower Native American genomic contribution when compared to non-T1DM patients. T1DM patients with AA genotype in rs1544410 or CC genotype in rs731236 had significantly lower 25(OH)D levels compared to the other two genotypes (p = 0.013 and p = 0.02, respectively), while T1DM with TT genotype in rs2228570 had higher 25(OH)D levels compared to CC + TC in the same polymorphism (p = 0.011). Our findings suggest that the association between 25(OH)D and T1DM may be modified by VDR variants, possibly influencing the development of this autoimmune disease.
