SLC2A9 and gout: In Mexican samples, rs1014290 allele G was negatively associated with SUA levels.[11] In UK, Croatian, and German populations, rs1014290 (SLC2A9) was associated with low fractional UA excretion or gout.[21] Significant differences in SUA levels between SLC2A9 rs1014290 (TT/TG/GG) genes in Japanese samples.[12] In Han Chinese, the CC[13] and GG[23] genotypes of rs1014290 were associated with lower SUA levels, suggesting that SLC2A9 polymorphisms may protect against hyperuricemia.
