Background: Inflammation may be a key pathophysiological mechanism in diabetic nephropathy (DN). Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM1) is an acute phase marker of inflammation. ICAM1 rs5498 has been reported to be associated with the risk of DN. However, the previous findings were conflicting due to the limited sample sizes, different methodologies and ethnicities. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the genetic association between ICAM1 rs5498 and the risk of DN.
Methods: Two investigators independently searched the studies from the databases PubMed, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Embase. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the associations.
Results: No significant association was detected between ICAM1 rs5498 and DN susceptibility in allelic and recessive models (p > 0.05). However, significant reduction of frequencies of the dominant model of ICAM1 rs5498 was only detected in the Caucasian subgroup (OR = 0.80; 95% CI = [0.65, 0.99], p = 0.04) and type 1 diabetes mellitus subgroup (OR = 0.80; 95% CI = [0.65, 0.99], p = 0.04).
Conclusions: Thus, ICAM1 rs5498 might be a risk factor for DN in Caucasians and type 1 diabetes mellitus patients, which suggested that ICAM1 rs5498 might help in early diagnosis and prevention of this disease. Further studies were needed to clarify the biochemical function and pathological role of ICAM1 rs5498 in the risk of DN.

Context: The role of genetic factors in the development of diabetic retinopathy is evident from the fact that only 50% of patients with the non-proliferative type of diabetic retinopathy progress to proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Though the K469E polymorphism of the ICAM-1 (Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1) gene is known to increase the risk of developing Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) among Type 2 diabetic patients, its role in the development of severe DR has not been extensively studied.
Aim: Hence, we aimed to determine the risk due to association of K469E polymorphism of ICAM-1 gene and sight threatening diabetic retinopathy.

Article Synopsis
- Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease that destroys insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, and this study investigates its genetic links, particularly in the Pakistani population, focusing on specific genes like PTPN22, INS, NLRP3, and ICAM-1.
- The study involved 100 T1D patients and 100 healthy controls, analyzing various genetic polymorphisms through Sanger sequencing to uncover their potential connections to T1D susceptibility.
- Results revealed that several specific genetic variants, such as those in PTPN22 and NLRP3, showed strong associations with T1D in the Pakistani children studied, highlighting important genetic factors that contribute to the disease in this population.*

Introduction: In the contemporary perspective, periodontitis is considered a complex issue triggered and perpetuated by bacteria but strongly influenced by the way the body reacts to bacterial plaque. Recent research has indicated that variations in genes might have an impact on the development of periodontitis. This study was conducted to explore a probable link between the genetic variations in intercellular adhesion molecule-1 () represented by rs5498 and the occurrence of periodontitis.

Background: Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is a surface glycoprotein important for tumor invasion and angiogenesis. The present research is conducted to investigate whether specific gene polymorphism of ICAM-1 K469E (rs5498) and plasma redox status could be associated with laryngeal cancer (LC) development. Since there is no clear evidence which investigates the relationship between ICAM-1 polymorphism and ROS-mediated plasma protein oxidation in LC, our study is the first significant contribution for investigating the relationship.

Article Synopsis
- Peripheral artery disease (PAD) affects over 200 million people globally, and researchers are exploring its genetic factors to improve diagnosis and treatment.
- A systematic review analyzed 231 DNA variants from various studies, revealing inconsistencies in how PAD is defined and controlled.
- While some consistent genetic variants linked to PAD were identified through genome-wide studies, more research is necessary to better understand the disease's progression and enhance patient outcomes.
