The IRF5 polymorphism in type 1 diabetes.

ABSTRACT: The interferon regulatory factor 5 gene (IRF5) has been shown to play a crucial role in harmful immune responses by induction of proinflammatory cytokines. Functional genetic variants associated with increased IRF5 expression of specific isoforms are associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and it is possible that they may also predispose to other autoimmune disorders. We tested the association of two IRF5 SNPs, correlated with IRF5 expression and SLE risk, in 947 nuclear family trios type 1 diabetes (T1D) using the transmission disequilibrium test. Our results suggest that the functional IRF5 variations do not confer an obvious risk for T1D.

IRF5 polymorphism predicts prognosis in patients with systemic sclerosis.

Project description:ObjectiveThe first genome-wide association study (GWAS) of systemic sclerosis (SSc) demonstrated three non-major histocompatibility complex (MHC) susceptibility loci. The goal of this study was to investigate the impact of these gene variants on survival and severity of interstitial lung disease (ILD) in SSc.MethodsThe authors examined 1443 Caucasian SSc patients enrolled in the Genetics versus Environment In Scleroderma Outcome Study (GENISOS) and Scleroderma Family Registry (n = 914 - discovery cohort) and The Johns Hopkins Scleroderma Cohort (n = 529 - replication cohort). Forced vital capacity (FVC)% predicted was used as a surrogate for ILD severity. Five single nucleotide polymorphisms, IRF5 (rs10488631, rs12537284, rs4728142), STAT4 (rs3821236), CD247 (rs2056626) reached genome-wide significance in the SSc-GWAS and were examined in the current study.ResultsOverall, 15.5% of the patients had died over the follow-up period of 5.5 years. The IRF5 rs4728142 minor allele was predictive of longer survival in the discovery cohort (p = 0.021) and in the independent replication cohort (p = 0.047) and combined group (HR: 0.75, 95% CI 0.62 to 0.90, p = 0.002). The association of this SNP with survival was independent of age at disease onset, disease type and autoantibody profile (anticentromere and antitopoisomerase antibodies). The minor allele frequency of IRF5 rs4728142 was 49.4%. Moreover, IRF5 rs4728142 minor allele correlated with higher FVC% predicted at enrolment (p = 0.019). Finally, the IRF5 rs4728142 minor allele was associated with lower IRF5 transcript expression in patients and controls (p = 0.016 and p = 0.034, respectively), suggesting that the IRF5, rs4728142 SNP, may be functionally relevant.ConclusionAn SNP in the IRF5 promoter region (rs4728142), associated with lower IRF5 transcript levels, was predictive of longer survival and milder ILD in patients with SSc.

Association of an IRF5 gene functional polymorphism with Sjogren's syndrome.

Project description:OBJECTIVE: Interferon regulatory factor 5 (IRF-5) is a transcription factor involved in the regulation of the host defense. Previous studies have demonstrated a significant association of various IRF5 gene polymorphisms with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in Caucasians. The purpose of this case-control study was to investigate whether IRF5 polymorphisms are involved in the genetic predisposition to primary Sjögren's syndrome (SS), an autoimmune disease closely related to SLE. METHODS: We analyzed IRF5 rs2004640, rs2070197, rs10954213, and rs2280714 polymorphisms in a cohort of 212 primary SS patients and 162 healthy blood donors, all of whom were of Caucasian origin. The 4 polymorphisms examined were genotyped by competitive allele-specific polymerase chain reaction using fluorescence resonance energy transfer technology. RESULTS: The IRF5 rs2004640 GT or TT genotype (T allele carriers) was identified in 87% of primary SS patients compared with 77% of controls (P = 0.01, odds ratio [OR] 1.93 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.15-3.42]). The IRF5 rs2004640 T allele was found on 59% of chromosomes from primary SS patients compared with 52% of chromosomes from controls (P = 0.04, OR 1.36 [95% CI 1.01-1.83]). No significant association of primary SS with rs2070197, rs10954213, or rs2280714 was seen when they were analyzed independently. Nevertheless, haplotype reconstructions based on the 4 polymorphisms examined suggest that various allele combinations of rs2004640 and rs2070197 could define susceptibility or protective haplotypes. CONCLUSION: This study is the first to demonstrate a significant association between primary SS and the IRF5 rs2004640 T allele. These results, which require further replication on larger populations, suggest that besides their association with identical major histocompatibility complex gene polymorphisms, primary SS and SLE share IRF gene polymorphisms as a common genetic susceptibility factor.

An RBP4 promoter polymorphism increases risk of type 2 diabetes.

Project description:Aims/hypothesisRetinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4), originally known for retinol transport, was recently identified as an adipokine affecting insulin resistance. The RBP4 -803GA promoter polymorphism influences binding of hepatic nuclear factor 1alpha and is associated with type 2 diabetes in case-control studies. We hypothesised that the RBP4 -803GA polymorphism increases type 2 diabetes risk at a population-based level. In addition, information on retinol intake and plasma vitamin A levels enabled us to explore the possible underlying mechanism.MethodsIn the Rotterdam Study, a prospective, population-based, follow-up study, the -803GA polymorphism was genotyped. In Cox proportional hazards models, associations of the -803GA polymorphism and retinol intake with type 2 diabetes risk were examined. Moreover, the interaction of the polymorphism with retinol intake on type 2 diabetes risk was assessed. In a subgroup of participants the association of the polymorphism and vitamin A plasma levels was investigated.ResultsHomozygous carriers of the -803A allele had increased risk of type 2 diabetes (HR 1.83; 95% CI 1.26-2.66). Retinol intake was not associated with type 2 diabetes risk and showed no interaction with the RBP4 -803GA polymorphism. Furthermore, there was no significant association of the polymorphism with plasma vitamin A levels.Conclusions/interpretationOur results provide evidence that homozygosity for the RBP4 -803A allele is associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes in the Rotterdam population. This relationship was not clearly explained by retinol intake and vitamin A plasma levels. Therefore, we cannot differentiate between a retinol-dependent or -independent mechanism of this RBP4 variant.

Clinical signs of type 1 diabetes are associated with type 2 diabetes marker transcription factor 7-like 2 polymorphism.

Project description:Aims/introductionWe aimed to assess the distribution of transcription factor 7-like 2 gene TCF7L2 (rs7903146) polymorphism and to find possible associations between TCF7L2 and the characteristics of type 1 diabetes.Materials and methodsWe studied 190 newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes patients (median age 12.7 years, range 2.0-72.5) and 246 controls (median age 23.8 years, range 1.4-81.5) for TCF7L2 single nucleotide polymorphism. We determined anti-islet autoantibodies, random C-peptide levels, diabetes associated HLA DR/DQ haplotypes and genotypes in all patients.ResultsThere were no differences in the distribution of TCF7L2 single nucleotide polymorphism between patients and controls. However, patients with in type 1 diabetes, after adjusting for age and sex, subjects carrying C allele were at risk for a C-peptide level lower than 0.5 nmol/L (OR 5.65 [95% CI: 1.14-27.92]) and for zinc transporter 8 autoantibody positivity (5.22 [1.34-20.24]). Participants without T allele were associated with a higher level of islet antigen-2 autoantibodies (3.51 [1.49-8.27]) and zinc transporter 8 autoantibodies (2.39 [1.14-4.99]).ConclusionsThe connection of TCF7L2 polymorphism with zinc transporter 8 and islet antigen-2 autoantibodies and C-peptide levels in patients supports the viewpoint that TCF7L2 is associated with the clinical signs and autoimmune characteristics of type 1 diabetes. The mechanisms of the interaction between the TCF7L2 risk genotype and anti-islet autoantibodies need to be studied further.

Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphism and risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Project description:OBJECTIVE: This review aimed to comprehensively assess the literature examining a possible link between the rs1801133 polymorphism (677C ? T) in the gene encoding the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene and risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Several research databases were systematically searched for studies examining the genotype at the rs1801133 polymorphism in healthy control individuals and individuals with type 2 DM. Genotype frequency data were examined across all studies and across subsets of studies according to ethnicity and presence of serious DM-related complications. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. RESULTS: A total of 4855 individuals with type 2 DM and 5242 healthy controls from 15 countries comprising Asian, Caucasian and African ethnicities were found to satisfy the inclusion criteria and included in the review. Genotype at the rs1801133 polymorphism was not consistently associated with either increased or reduced risk of type 2 DM; the OR across all studies was 0.91 (95%CI 0.82 to 1.00) for the C- vs. T-allele, 0.88 (0.75 to 1.03) for CC vs. CT+TT, 0.82 (0.71 to 0.95) for CC vs. TT, and 1.15 (1.03 to 1.29) for TT vs. CC+CT. Similar results were found when the meta-analysis was repeated separately for each ethnic subgroup, and for subgroups with or without serious DM-related complications. CONCLUSIONS: There does not appear to be compelling evidence of an association between the genotype at the rs1801133 polymorphism of the MTHFR gene and risk of type 2 DM.

NLRP3 Inflammasome Polymorphism and Macrovascular Complications in Type 2 Diabetes Patients.

Project description:BACKGROUND:It is generally accepted that poor glycemic control, arterial hypertension and/or hyperlipidemia, and the associated oxidative stress may contribute to the development of macro- and microvascular complications in type 2 diabetes (T2D). Such metabolic damage signals may activate inflammasome and trigger chronic inflammation. We investigated common polymorphisms in inflammasome coding genes and the risk for macro- and microvascular complications in T2D. METHODS:In total 181 clinically well-characterised T2D patients were genotyped for NLRP3 rs35829419 and CARD8 rs2043211. Risk for diabetic complications was assessed using logistic regression. RESULTS:Patients with median duration of T2D 11 (6-17) years had relatively well controlled blood glucose and lipid levels and blood pressure on the prescribed treatment regimen. Duration of T2D and plasma cholesterol levels were the most important clinical risk factors for macrovascular complications (P = 0.007 and P = 0.031). NLRP3 rs35829419 was associated with increased risk for macrovascular complications (P = 0.004), with myocardial infarction in particular (P = 0.052). No association was observed between CARD8 polymorphism and any of T2D complications. CONCLUSIONS:Our preliminary data suggest the role of NLRP3 polymorphism in diabetic macrovascular complications, especially in myocardial infarction.

Potential role of the ABCG2-Q141K polymorphism in type 2 diabetes.

Project description:Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a complex metabolic disease and variations in multispecific membrane transporter functions may affect T2DM development, complications or treatment. In this work we have analyzed the potential effects of a major polymorphism, the Q141K variant of the ABCG2 transporter in T2DM. The ABCG2 protein is a multispecific xeno- and endobiotic transporter, affecting drug metabolism and playing a key role in uric acid extrusion. The ABCG2-Q141K variant, with reduced expression level and function, is present in 15-35% of individuals, depending on the genetic background of the population, and has been shown to significantly affect gout development. Several other diseases, including hypertension, chronic renal failure, and T2DM have also been reported to be associated with high serum uric acid levels, suggesting that ABCG2 may also play a role in these conditions. In this work we have compared relatively small cohorts (n = 203) of T2DM patients (n = 99) and healthy (n = 104) individuals regarding the major laboratory indicators of T2DM and determined the presence of the SNP rs2231142 (C421A), resulting the ABCG2-Q141K protein variant. We found significantly higher blood glucose and HbA1c levels in the T2DM patients carrying the ABCG2-Q141K variant. These findings may emphasize the potential metabolic role of ABCG2 in T2DM and indicate that further research should explore how prevention and treatment of this disease may be affected by the frequent polymorphism of ABCG2.
