Genetic Predictors of Development of Diabetic Foot Syndrome in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus

<strong>ABSTRACT</strong>: An increase in the population of patients with diabetes mellitus affects the incidence of diabetic foot syndrome (DFS), as its chronic complication. Among the various types of growth factors that play a role in the development of late complications of diabetes, vascular endothelial growth factor, VEGF, is currently in the focus of attention. The study conducted by the authors was aimed at determining the relationship between the G634C polymorphism of the VEGFA rs2010963 gene and the predisposition to the development of diabetic foot syndrome in patients with diabetes mellitus. We examined 96 patients aged 39 to 76 years with diabetes mellitus complicated by diabetic foot syndrome. Based on the studies, it was determined that the G634C polymorphism in the VEGFA gene (rs2010963) is involved in the formation and development of diabetic foot syndrome in patients with diabetes mellitus.
