<description descriptionType="Abstract"><p>Type 2 diabetes affect large population and able to develop micro and macrovascular complicati<br>
ons. There are many non- genetic and genetic factors or both are associated for the occurrence of<br>
type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and diabetic complications. Genes of the renin angiotensin syst<br>
em angiotensin converting enzyme insertion/deletion gene polymorphism has been associated wi<br>
th the risk of type 2 diabetes and its complications. The aim of the present study was to<br>
investigate the association of angiotensin converting enzyme gene polymorphism, risk of type 2<br>
diabetes and its complications. A total of 222 subjects (111 T2DM and 111 healthy controls)<br>
were collected from Bahir Dar Felegehiwot referral hospital and Bahir Dar town, respectively by<br>
using non-probability purposive sampling techniques. Patients with T2DM were selected using<br>
non probability purposive sampling technique. Minidray fully automated analyzer was used for<br>
biochemical tests such as glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerol, urea and creatinine to assess the<br>
associated risk factors. The ACE I/D genotypes were identified by Polymerase chain reaction<br>
(PCR) using appropriate primers and PCR reaction conditions. The present study revealed that<br>
the frequency of DD genotype and D allele were higher in type 2 diabetes mellitus compared to<br>
healthy controls (DD, 64.2% Vs 35.6% P &lt; 0 .001) and ( D, 79.3% Vs 59.9% P &lt; 0.001). DD<br>
genotype showed three fold increase risk towards T2DM as compared to II Genotype (OR:<br>
2.984, CI: 1.332 - 6.689, P &lt; 0.02). The D allele carriers had five times high risk of getting<br>
diabetic as compared to I allele. (OR, D 2.178; CI: 1.168 &ndash; 3.232 P &lt; 0.001 Vs I OR, 0.459; CI:<br>
0.309 &ndash; 0.681 P &lt; 0.001). To determine whether ACE gene polymorphism was associated with<br>
diabetic complication, patients with type 2 diabetes were divided into diabetic hypertension,<br>
diabetic retinopathy and diabetic nephropathy. The frequency of ACE DD genotype and D allele<br>
in patients with diabetic hypertension were significantly higher than T2DM patients (41.6% and<br>
60.4% Vs 19.5% and 37.8% P &lt; 0.01). The frequency of ACE DD genotype and D allele in<br>
patients with diabetic retinopathy were also higher than T2DM patients (28.6% and 44.1% Vs<br>
19.5% and 37.8%). The frequency of ACE genotype in patients with diabetic nephropathy did<br>
not show significant association</p></description>
