Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the association between SNPs in the TIE2 and ANGPT-1 genes and diabetic retinopathy (DR). Subjects and methods: This study comprised 603 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and DR (cases) and 388 patients with T2DM for more than 10 years and without DR (controls). The TIE2 rs639225 (A/G) and rs638203 (A/G) SNPs and the ANGPT-1 rs4324901 (G/T) and rs2507800 (T/A) SNPs were genotyped by real-time PCR using TaqMan MGB probes. Results: The G/G genotype of the rs639225/TIE2, the G/G genotype of the rs638203/ TIE2 and the T allele of the rs4324901/ANGPT-1 SNPs were associated with protection against DR after adjustment for age, glycated hemoglobin, gender, and presence of hypertension (P = 0.042, P = 0.003, and P = 0.028, respectively). No association was found between the rs2507800/ANGPT-1 SNP and DR. Conclusion: We demonstrated, for the first time, the association of TIE2 rs638203 and rsrs939225 SNPs and ANGPT-1 rs4324901 SNP with protection against DR in a Brazilian population.
