Sažetak

Aim To investigate the association of nephrolithiasis and
solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter,
member 9 (SLC2A9), also known as glucose transporter
type 9, Glut9.
Methods A total of 145 participants were recruited in the
period April-October 2008 from the Department of Mineral
Research of the Medical School Osijek, Osijek, Croatia; 58
(40%) had confirmed nephrolithiasis and 87 (60%) were asymptomatic.
Four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP)
from the SLC2A9 gene were genotyped in both groups
(rs733175, rs6449213, rs1014290, and rs737267).
Results There was a weak but significant association of all
4 SNPs and nephrolithiasis (P = 0.029 for rs733175; P = 0.006
for rs6449213; P = 0.020 for rs1014290, and P = 0.011 for
rs737267). Logistic regression in an age- and sex-adjusted
model suggested that genotype C/T for rs6449213 had
odds ratio for nephrolithiasis of 2.89 (95% confidence interval
1.13-7.40). This SNP explained a total of 4.4% of nephrolithiasis
variance.
Conclusion Development of nephrolithiasis may be associated
with SLC2A9 gene. Further studies are needed to
clarify the role of SLC2A9 gene as a link between uric acid
and nephrolithiasis.
