ABSTRACT
Introduction: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a pathological condition that occurs gradually and is irreversible, characterized by structural and functional abnormalities in the kidneys that lasts for more than three months. The C allele in the Neuropeptide Y (NPY) RS16147 gene is closely related to an increase in the incidence of hypertension, a decrease in glomerular filtration rate, and an increase in total cholesterol levels in CKD patients.
Objective: To determine the effect of the NPY RS16147 gene polymorphism on the blood pressure of chronic kidney disease patients and control healthy in Medan Indonesia.
Methods: This study is an analytical study with a case-control design at the Haji Adam Malik General Hospital Medan from July to August 2020. All subjects had Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) analysis using Polymerase Chain Reaction Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method.
Results: We obtained 100 study subjects, 43 was CKD patients with dialysis, 31 CKD patients without dialysis, and 26 control healthy groups. In this study, there were differences in the trend genotypes of NPY RS16147 polymorphism with the incidence of CKD and control healthy. We obtained a significant difference the mean systolic blood pressure patients with genotypes TT (139,05±21,42) and TC/CC (151,32±22,26) as evidenced by the value of P = 0.00 (≤0.05). The presence of the "C" allele in the NPY RS16147 gene sample increased blood pressure in all study subjects significantly (P=0.028; ≤0.05).
Conclusion: the "C" allele in the NPY RS16147 gene affects systolic blood pressure.
Keywords: NPY RS16147 polymorphism, Chronic kidney disease, Blood pressure.
