The common TaqIB variant in the gene coding for Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) has been associated with higher HDL-C levels and, in men, with a less atherogenic HDL subpopulations profile. Similar information are lacking in women. The effect of CETP polymorphism on lipid and lipoprotein profile, as well as on ApoAI-containing HDL subclasses distribution, as determined by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, was examined in a group of women with and without type 2 diabetes. Diabetic women showed a more atherogenic lipid and HDL-supopulations profile, with lower levels of a-1 (P=0.006), a-2 (P=0.005), and pre a1(P=0.02) HDL particles, and higher concentration of the a-3 HDL subspecies (P=0.02) as compared to controls, independently from menopause, triglycerides and HDL-C concentrations. CETP TaqIB genotype distribution was in the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and comparable in the two groups, but the effect of CETP polymorphism was limited to diabetic women. In this group, CETP variant showed significant interactions with HOMAIR (P<0.001), BMI (P<0.001), and triglycerides (P<0.00001); significantly higher HDL-C levels and a more protective HDL subpopulations profile was noted in B2 allele carriers with lower HOMAIR, BMI and triglycerides levels. At multivariate analysis, CETP TaqIB (P=0.006) variant was confirmed to be a significant predictor of HDL-C levels in diabetic women only, together with apo AI ( P<0.0001), triglycerides (P<0.0001) and BMI (P=0.023).
