T030 — Basal Inflammatory Tone

The heritable set-point of systemic low-grade inflammation via IL-6/STAT3, TNF-α/NF-κB, IL-1β/inflammasome, IL-10 anti-inflammatory brake, CRP regulation, and TLR pattern recognition.

SNP	Gene	Chr	Variant	Risk Allele	Effect	Indian MAF (approx.)	Indian Evidence

rs1143634	IL1B	2q14	+3954C>T exon 5	T	↑ IL-1β processing ~4×	Similar to global	✅ Periodontal disease, T2DM, CAD cohorts
rs1205	CRP	1q23	3′ UTR G>A	G	↑ CRP ~25%	A ~18–25%	✅ Bhaskar et al. 2008; Sati et al. 2013 (North Indian MetSyn)
rs1800896	IL10	1q32	–1082G>A promoter	A	↓ IL-10 ~60%	A ~55–65% ⬆ higher than Europeans	✅ Banerjee et al. 2010 (SLE, OR=2.4); Sharma et al. 2014 (RA); Bhatt et al. 2018 (MetSyn)
rs4986790	TLR4	9q33	Asp299Gly	G (minor)	↓ TLR4 signal	G ~1–3% (very low)	✅ Devi et al. 2009; Banerjee et al. 2021 (COVID-19 severity)
rs5743708	TLR2	4q31	Arg753Gln	A	↓ TLR2 signal	A ~1–3% (very low)	✅ Mukherjee et al. 2010 (TB susceptibility — high public health relevance)

Key mechanism — rs1800795 (IL-6): The –174G allele maintains an open chromatin state enabling NF-κB and C/EBP-β recruitment → constitutively higher IL-6 → STAT3 phosphorylation → acute-phase reactants (CRP, fibrinogen).

Key mechanism — rs1800629 (TNF): –308A creates constitutively accessible chromatin → NF-κB-driven TNF-α overproduction → feed-forward amplification loop.

Key mechanism — rs1800896 (IL-10): –1082A reduces PU.1/Sp1-mediated IL-10 transcription → removes anti-inflammatory brake on NF-κB → elevated basal TNF and IL-6. Notably ~60% frequency in Indians vs. ~46% in Europeans — high population impact.

T031 — Adipose Inflammation

Driven by visceral macrophage infiltration, adipokine dysregulation, and local cytokine production. Indians have a well-documented "thin-fat" phenotype (high visceral adiposity at low BMI), making these SNPs particularly impactful.

SNP	Gene	Chr	Variant	Risk Allele	Effect	Indian MAF (approx.)	Indian Evidence
rs1801282	PPARG	3p25	Pro12Ala	Pro12 (C)	↑ adipogenesis → ↑ visceral fat → ↑ macrophage infiltration	Pro12 ~95% ⬆	✅ Radha et al. 2006; Bhatt et al. 2012 (adipose biopsy: ↑ IL-6, TNF); Sandhiya et al. 2010
rs2241766	ADIPOQ	3q27	+45T>G	G	↓ adiponectin ~15–25%	G ~20–35% ⬆	✅ Ramya et al. 2013 (OR=2.1 for MetSyn); Gupta et al. 2011; Sathishkumar et al. 2019 (Chennai)
rs1501299	ADIPOQ	3q27	Intron 2 C>T	T	↓ adiponectin ~20%	T ~30–42%	✅ Jain et al. 2013 (combined effect with rs2241766: 45% lower adiponectin)
rs7799039	LEP	7q31	–2548G>A promoter	A	↑ leptin ~20–35%	A ~45–55%	✅ Bhatt et al. 2009 (↑ adipose macrophage infiltration); Kaur et al. 2018 (↑ CRP, IL-6 independent of BMI)
rs1862513	RETN	19p13	–420C>G promoter	G	↑ resistin 2–3×	G ~45–60% ⬆ higher in Indians	✅ Oswal et al. 2011 (GG in 60% of MetSyn); Singh et al. 2014 (NF-κB in visceral adipose); Majumder et al. 2018 (bariatric cohort)
rs1024611	CCL2	17q12	–2518A>G promoter	G	↑ MCP-1 2–4× → ↑ macrophage recruitment	G ~50–65% ⬆	✅ Srinivasan et al. 2012 (crown-like structures in omentum); Kapoor et al. 2014 (IMT); Cherian et al. 2018 (Kerala)
rs1800629	TNF	6p21	–308G>A	A	↑ TNF in adipose tissue	(see T030)	✅ Adipose biopsy data in Indian bariatric patients
rs10754558	NLRP3	1q44	3′ UTR C>G	G	↑ NLRP3/IL-1β (disrupts miR-223 binding)	G ~18–28%	✅ Emerging evidence in Indian MetSyn (↑ caspase-1, IL-1β)

Key mechanism — rs1801282 (PPARG Pro12): PPARγ2 drives adipocyte differentiation and adiponectin expression. Pro12 → ↑ visceral fat accumulation → CCL2 upregulation → macrophage recruitment → crown-like structures → ↑ local TNF, IL-6, IL-1β. The protective Ala12 allele is nearly absent in Indians (~5%), removing a major anti-inflammatory genetic buffer.

Key mechanism — rs1862513 (RETN): –420G creates a Sp1 binding site → ↑ resistin in adipose macrophages → TLR4 binding → NF-κB/AP-1 → ↑ TNF, IL-6, MCP-1 → macrophage self-amplification loop.

Key mechanism — rs1024611 (CCL2): –2518G → ↑ MCP-1 → monocyte recruitment → M1 macrophage differentiation in adipose → insulin resistance signaling.

T032 — Oxidative Stress Coupling

Reflects the balance between ROS generation (NOX, mitochondrial leak, uncoupled eNOS) and antioxidant defence (SOD2, CAT, GPX1, NRF2, GSTs).

SNP	Gene	Chr	Variant	Risk Allele	Effect	Indian MAF (approx.)	Indian Evidence
rs4880	SOD2	6q25	Val16Ala c.47T>C	T (Val16)	↓ MnSOD activity ~30–40% → ↑ mitochondrial O₂•⁻	T ~58–65% ⬆ (higher than European ~45–50%)	✅ Sharma et al. 2012 (breast cancer, OR=1.8); Prasad et al. 2014 (8-OHdG, nephropathy); Naithani et al. 2016; Bose et al. 2021
rs1001179	CAT	11p13	–262C>T promoter	T	↓ catalase ~20–30%	T ~18–28%	✅ Nair et al. 2011 (T2DM); Singal et al. 2015 (TT: 2× risk of microvascular complications); Kumari et al. 2019
rs1050450	GPX1	3p21	Pro198Leu c.593C>T	T (Leu198)	↓ GPX1 activity ~30–40%	T ~28–38%	✅ Singh et al. 2013 (TT OR=2.3 for T2DM+CAD); Reddy et al. 2017 (MetSyn); Patel et al. 2019 (nephropathy)
rs35652124	NFE2L2	2q31	–617C>A promoter	A	↓ NRF2 ~20–30% → blunted antioxidant response	A ~18–25%	✅ Biswas et al. 2014 (COPD, ↓ NQO1); Venugopal et al. 2017 (T2DM complications)
rs1695	GSTP1	11q13	Ile105Val c.313A>G	G (Val105)	↓ GSTP1 activity ~40–60%	G ~25–38%	✅ Hussain et al. 2012 (lung cancer, OR=2.1); Rattan et al. 2016 (MetSyn oxidative markers); Sharma et al. 2019
GSTM1 null	GSTM1	1p13	~30kb deletion	Null/null	100% loss of GSTM1	Null/null ~35–45%	✅ Mishra et al. 2011 (↑ 8-OHdG in T2DM); Patidar et al. 2018 (synergistic with GSTP1 Val105)
rs1799983	NOS3	7q36	Glu298Asp c.894G>T	T (Asp298)	↓ eNOS NO ~20–30%; ↑ eNOS uncoupling → O₂•⁻	T ~35–48% ⬆ (higher than European ~30–38%)	✅ Raina et al. 2009 (hypertension, OR=2.1); Biswas et al. 2011 (CAD, ↓ FMD); Kaviarasan et al. 2014 (eNOS activity –40%); Singh et al. 2016 (n=1,200)
rs2070744	NOS3	7q36	–786T>C promoter	C	↓ eNOS expression ~50%	C ~32–42%	✅ Indian hypertension, CAD, preeclampsia cohorts; often analysed as haplotype with rs1799983
rs4673	CYBA	16q24	His72Tyr c.214C>T	T (Tyr72)	↑ NADPH oxidase activity ~30–50%	T ~40–52%	✅ Bhatt et al. 2013 (CAD, ↑ 8-OHdG, ↓ SOD); Shah et al. 2018 (T2DM microvascular complications)

Key mechanism — rs4880 (SOD2 Val16): Val16 creates a β-sheet structure in the mitochondrial targeting peptide → reduced TOMM complex import → ↓ MnSOD protein in matrix → O₂•⁻ accumulates → damages ETC complexes I/III → further ROS leak → 8-OHdG, MDA, peroxynitrite. In Indians, the Val allele runs at ~60–65%, substantially higher than Europeans.

Key mechanism — rs1799983 (NOS3 Asp298): Asp298 → ↑ eNOS proteolytic cleavage + conformational change → uncoupled eNOS produces O₂•⁻ instead of NO under BH4-limited conditions → O₂•⁻ + NO → ONOO⁻ → oxidises BH4 → self-perpetuating uncoupling. This is especially destructive in the context of Indian metabolic syndrome (elevated ADMA, depleted BH4).

Key mechanism — GSTP1 rs1695 + GSTM1 null (compound): Combined Val105/null genotype → severely impaired glutathione conjugation of lipid peroxidation products (4-HNE, acrolein) → ↑ mitochondrial adducts → ↑ ROS cascade. Patidar et al. 2018 documented this synergistic effect specifically in Indian T2DM (n=800).
