Abstract
This study aimed to explore the potential role of CYP3A5 (c. 6986A>G) gene polymorphism in predicting kidney function impairment in patients with hypertension who did not have elevated serum cystatin C. We recruited a group of patients with hypertension who did not have elevated cystatin C and analyzed the CYP3A5 (c. 6986A>G) gene polymorphism. Chi-square tests were used to compare the clinical characteristics and genotypic distribution between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the association between CYP3A5 (c.6986A>G) gene polymorphism and renal function impairment in hypertension with non-elevated cystatin. In patients with hypertension who participated in the study, there was a significant association between CYP3A5 (c. 6986A>G) gene polymorphism and kidney function impairment (p < 0.05). Patients with the CYP3A5 (c. 6986A>G) mutation display a greater risk of kidney function impairment. CYP3A5 (c. 6986A>G) gene AA homozygote polymorphism significantly increases risk of kidney function impairment in patients with hypertension with normal cystatin C. However, further studies are needed to validate this association and to further understand the mechanism of CYP3A5 (c. 6986A>G) gene polymorphism in kidney function impairment in patients with hypertension.
