The aim: to investigate the metabolic effects of different treatment options in patients with obesity and concomitant non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) based on the presence of CG and GG genotypes PPARG rs1801282 (Pro12Ala) polymorphism in Ukrainians.

Materials and methods: 123 patients with NAFLD in combination with obesity 1, 2, 3 classes were included in the motivational weight loss program (5 visits, 3 months). The case group was treated with pioglitazone 15 mg / day, while the control group received only a program. Ultrasound steatometry, anthropometric and laboratory tests before and after treatment, genetic testing rs1801282 polymorphism in PPARG gene were performed.

Results: the carriers of CG and GG genotypes PPARG rs1801282 polymorphism had less high stimulated insulin levels compared with groups of different genotypes (p<0.001). It was found pioglitazone effectiveness with significant difference in dynamics of CAP reduction (p<0.001) regardless of polymorphism. Dynamics of BMI decrease was the lowest in control group CC carries – –2.81 (–3.23; –2.39) kg (p<0.001) compared among other groups. Subjects from pioglitazone group with rs1801282 polymorphism carrying of CG and GG genotypes had significant differences in dynamics of fasting С-peptide decrease, serum uric acid reduction – –1.31 (–1.50; –1.13) µg/L and -165.3 (–182.80; –147.80) µmol/L (p<0.001) respectively compared among other groups.

Conclusions: Better reduction of metabolic parameters during pioglitazone treatment of patients with obesity and concomitant NAFLD appears to be associated with carrying of CG and GG genotypes PPARG rs1801282 polymorphism.
