ABSTRACT
Background. Gallstone disease (GSD) is a common chronic disease in the Western hemisphere, yet environmental
and genetic factors may be responsible for the variations in the prevalence of GSD among populations.
Aim. To analyze the relationship of the
ApoE and
FABP2 polymorphisms with diet, physical activity
and emotional health in patients with GSD from West Mexico.
Material and methods. A total of 120 patients
with GSD and 370 healthy subjects were enrolled. Anthropometric, biochemical, nutritional, clinical
and physical activity parameters were measured.
ApoE and
FABP2 genotypes were assesed by PCR-RFLPs
assays.
Results: ApoE E3/E4 genotype and the
ApoE E4 allele was highly prevalent among the GSD patients
compared to the controls (32%
vs. 12.0% and 22%
vs. 8.4% respectively p ‹ 0.01). Patients with the
Apo E4
allele showed an upward trend of cholesterol levels compared to non-
Apo E4 allele carriers (
E4 186 ± 30
mg/dL;
E3 143 ± 37 mg/dL; E2 129 ± 34 mg/dL). High triglyceride levels were associated with patients that
were
FABP2 Thr54 allele carriers (p ‹ 0.05) but lacked association with GSD. This may be due to changes in
dietary fats after GSD diagnosis, masking the clinical course of the disease. Sedentary lifestyle and negative
emotions were detected in 83% and 63% of patients, respectively.
Conclusion. These data suggest that
the
Apo E4 allele could confer genetic susceptibility for the development of GSD among the Mexican population.
The Ala54Thr polymorphism of
FABP2 was associated with high triglycerides levels, but not to GSD;
suggesting that environmental factors modulate such susceptibility.
