Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) levels are elevated in diabetes and likely contribute to diabetic complications such as retinopathy and nephropathy. The DDAH enzymes are primarily responsible for ADMA metabolism. Polymorphisms in the dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase (DDAH) 1 and 2 genes have been previously associated with serum ADMA levels in type 2 diabetes (T2DM).

Association between pre-eclampsia (PEE1) and the dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase (DDAH) 1 and 2 genes, which play a role in the regulation of nitric oxide synthesis and release, was studied. In a case-control study design single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were determined at eight sites in the DDAH1 gene and at one site (Pro231Pro) in the DDAH2 gene from 132 women with pre-eclampsia and 112 healthy controls. Three SNPs in the DDAH1 gene were associated with pre-eclampsia, showing complete linkage disequilibrium with each other, but none of the associations in the allele or genotype data reached statistical significance in either of the genes after the correction for multiple testing.
