Abstract

Purpose: the aim of our study was to investigate vitamin D status and auxological parameters in children with idiopathic short stature in relation to the +1245G>T polymorphism of the COL1A1 gene. Materials and methods. A clinical and genetic study of 35 children with idiopathic short stature treated at the V.P. Komisarenko State Institute of Endocrinology and Metabolism of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine was performed. Determination of the +1245 G > T (rs1800012) polymorphism of the COL1A1 gene was performed using the polymerase chain reaction method, followed by analysis of the length of restriction fragments detected by agarose gel electrophoresis. The results of the study were statistically analyzed in Excel. Results. The greatest growth retardation was observed in the homozygous G/G genotype, followed by the T/T homozygote, and children heterozygous for the T/G alleles had the least growth retardation among all patients with ISS. Basal GH levels were low in all study groups regardless of genotype, but were lowest in carriers of the T/T homozygous genotype. Growth hormone (GH) levels after stimulation with clonidine were above 10 ng/ml in all subjects, i.e. in line with the norm. The level of HDI-1 in the study subjects was normal, but its lowest level was found in patients with the presence of the heterozygous T/G polymorphism. Conclusions. A significant number of children with idiopathic short stature (65,71%) have a homozygous G/G genotype of the +1245 G/T polymorphism (rs1800012) of the COL1A1 gene, homozygotes for T/T alleles were 2,86% and heterozygotes for T/G alleles were 31,43%. Hypovitaminosis D occurred in all children with idiopathic short stature: deficiency – in children with heterozygous T/G genotype (46,38 ± 3,43 nmol/L), and vitamin D insufficiency – in carriers of homozygous genotypes, namely T/T genotype (70,30 ± 0,00 nmol/L) and homozygous G/G genotype (55,20 ± 4,72 nmol/L).
