Association analysis of TNFRSF1B polymorphisms with type 2 diabetes and its related traits in North India.

ABSTRACT: Inflammation plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes and various lines of evidences suggest an important contribution of type 2 receptor for TNFalpha (TNFR2), a mediator of inflammatory responses. Though genetic association of TNFRSF1B (encoding TNFR2) polymorphisms have been investigated in various studies, their involvement is not clear because of inconsistent findings. Because of high susceptibility of Indian population to type 2 diabetes and its complications, we evaluated the association of TNFRSF1B polymorphisms-rs1061622 (M196R; exon6) and rs3397 (3'UTR) and (CA)( n ) repeat (intron 4) in 1,852 subjects including 1,040 cases and 812 controls with type 2 diabetes and its associated peripheral neuropathy and hypertension in North Indians of Indo-European ethnicity. The allelic and genotypic distributions of these polymorphisms were comparable among healthy control vs. type 2 diabetes, peripheral neuropathy vs. non-neuropathy and hypertensive vs. normotensive groups. (CA)( n ) polymorphism has been shown to be associated with diabetic neuropathy in Caucasians, however, this could not be replicated in our study (P = 0.27). None of the polymorphisms were found to influence the 14 anthropometric and biochemical traits related to type 2 diabetes studied here. Thus, we conclude that TNFRSF1B is not a major contributing factor to the genetic risk of type 2 diabetes, its associated peripheral neuropathy and hypertension and related metabolic traits in North Indians.

Project description:BackgroundA machine-learning approach identified five subgroups of diabetes in Europeans which included severe autoimmune diabetes (SAID), severe insulin-deficient diabetes (SIDD), severe insulin-resistant diabetes (SIRD), mild obesity-related diabetes (MOD) and mild age-related diabetes (MARD) with partially distinct genetic aetiologies. We previously validated four of the non-autoimmune subgroups in people with young-onset type 2 diabetes (T2D) from the Indian WellGen study. Here, we aimed to apply European-derived centroids and genetic risk scores (GRSs) to the unselected (for age) WellGen to test their applicability and investigate the genetic aetiology of the Indian T2D subgroups.MethodsWe applied European derived centroids and GRSs to T2D participants of Indian ancestry (WellGen, n = 2217, 821 genotyped) and compared them with normal glucose tolerant controls (Pune Maternal Nutrition Study, n = 461).FindingsSIDD was the predominant subgroup followed by MOD, whereas SIRD and MARD were less frequent. Weighted-GRS for T2D, obesity and lipid-related traits associated with T2D. We replicated some of the previous associations of GRS for T2D, insulin secretion, and BMI with SIDD and MOD. Unique to Indian subgroups was the association of GRS for (a) proinsulin with MOD and MARD, (b) liver-lipids with SIDD, SIRD and MOD, and (c) opposite effect of beta-cell GRS with SIDD and MARD, obesity GRS with MARD compared to Europeans. Genetic variants of fucosyltransferases were associated with T2D and MOD in Indians but not Europeans.InterpretationThe similarities emphasise the applicability of some of the European-derived GRSs to T2D and its subgroups in India while the differences highlight the need for large-scale studies to identify aetiologies in diverse ancestries. The data provide robust evidence for genetically distinct aetiologies for the T2D subgroups and at least partly mirror those seen in Europeans.FundingVetenskapsrådet, Diabetes Wellness, and Hjärt-Lungfonden (Sweden), DST (India), Wellcome Trust, Crafoord Foundation and Albert Påhlsson Foundation.

Project description:IntroductionGenetic variants have been replicated for association with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and many of them with diabetes-related traits. Because T2D is highly prevalent in Mexico, this study aimed to test the association of CDKN2A/B, PPARGC1A, VEGFA, SIRT1 and UCP2 gene polymorphisms (rs10811661, rs8192678, rs2010963, rs7896005 and rs659366 respectively) with metabolic traits in 415 unrelated Mexican mestizos with T2D under three models of inheritance.Material and methodsA total of 415 unrelated Mexican mestizos were genotyped by TaqMan assays. Triglycerides, cholesterol, glucose, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), insulin and anthropometric measurements were determined and the HOMA-IR was calculated. Association studies were tested by the Kruskal-Wallis test, linear regression, statistical power analysis, Bonferroni correction, paired SNP analysis, and physical interaction by GeneMANIA.ResultsAll polymorphisms were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, and the association by genotype with T2D-related traits displayed nominal significance for rs8192678 with glucose (p = 0.023) and triglycerides (p = 0.013); rs2010963 with diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (p = 0.012) and cholesterol (p = 0.013); rs7896005 with DBP (p = 0.012) and insulin (p = 0.011); and rs659366 with cholesterol (p = 0.034), glucose (p = 0.031) and triglycerides (p = 0.028); and the association of rs2010963 with HDL-C (p = 0.0007) was significant. Linear regression performed with three models of inheritance, adjusted by age + sex + BMI and corrected with Bonferroni, showed a significant association of rs2010963 with HDL-C in an additive model (p = 0.007); and rs7896005 was significantly associated with DBP in the recessive model (p = 0.006).ConclusionsRigorous analysis evidenced the association of VEGFA rs2010963 and SIRT1 rs7896005 with HDL-C and DBP respectively; these traits are known predictors of cardiovascular complications, which increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases in this population.

Project description:Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has been linked to a state of pre-clinical chronic inflammation resulting from abnormalities in the innate immune pathway. Serum levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines and acute-phase proteins, collectively known as 'inflammatory network', are elevated in the pre-, or early, stages of T2DM and increase with disease progression. Genetic variation can affect the innate immune response to certain environmental factors, and may, therefore, determine an individual's lifetime risk of disease.We conducted a cross-sectional study in 6,720 subjects from the Twins UK Registry to evaluate the association between 18 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in five genes (TLR4, IL1A, IL6, TNFA, and CRP) along the innate immunity-related inflammatory pathway and biomarkers of predisposition to T2DM [fasting insulin and glucose, HDL- and LDL- cholesterols, triglycerides (TGs), amyloid-A, sensitive C-reactive protein (sCRP) and vitamin D binding protein (VDBP) and body mass index (BMI)].Of 18 the SNPs examined for their association with nine metabolic phenotypes of interest, six were significantly associated with five metabolic phenotypes (Bonferroni correction, P ? 0.0027). Fasting insulin was associated with SNPs in IL6 and TNFA, serum HDL-C with variants of TNFA and CRP and serum sCRP level with SNPs in CRP. Cross-correlation analysis among the different metabolic factors related to risk of T2DM showed several significant associations. For example, BMI was directly correlated with glucose (r = 0.11), insulin (r = 0.15), sCRP (r = 0.23), LDL-C (r = 0.067) and TGs (r = 0.18) but inversely with HDL-C (r = -0.14). sCRP was also positively correlated (P < 0.0001) with insulin (r = 0.17), amyloid-A (r = 0.39), TGs (r = 0.26), and VDBP (r = 0.36) but inversely with HDL-C (r = -0.12).Genetic variants in the innate immunity pathway and its related inflammatory cascade is associated with some metabolic risk factors for T2DM; an observation that may provide a rationale for further studying their role as biomarkers for disease early risk prediction.

Project description:IntroductionCurrent study aimed to find the association of genes polymorphism of CDKAL1, HHEX, CDKN2A/2B, and IGF2BP2 with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in the population of Uttarakhand.Research design and methodsOverall 469 persons comprising 369 recently diagnosed T2DM cases and 100 healthy control were enrolled in the present study. The polymorphisms were analyzed through the PCR-RFLP technique.ResultsFor the rs10440833 variant (CDKAL1), CC genotype's frequency was significantly high among T2DM subjects than controls and increase the T2DM risk (OR: 4.46, 95% CI: 2.22-8.99, p <0.0001). The c allele was significantly found to increase the T2DM risk (OR: 2.20, 95% CI: 1.54-3.14, p <0.001). In the rs1111875 variant (HHEX), the difference of genotype frequencies among T2DM cases and control was statistically non-significant (p-0.138). We did not observe significant differences in allelic frequencies among T2DM cases and control (p-0.444). In the case of rs10811661 variant (CDKN2A/2B), frequency of both TC (OR: 3.16, 95% CI: 1.84-5.42, p <0.0001) and TT (OR: 5.84, 95% CI: 1.75-19.45, p -0.004) genotype were significantly higher in T2DM cases in comparison with control and significantly associated with higher T2DM risk. Compared to the C allele, a significant increase in T2DM risk was documented with the T allele (OR: 2.47, 95% CI: 1.55-3.92, p <0.001). For rs4402960 variant (IGF2BP2), TT genotype contributed to increased T2DM risk (OR: 4.25, 95% CI: 2.02-8.93, p -0.0001). T allele's frequency was significantly high in T2DM cases in comparison with healthy control. Except WHR, HDL-C, exercise, household chores, standing work more than 3 hours, and family history, significant differences were found between T2DM cases and healthy individuals in all other parameters.ConclusionOur study concluded a significant association of CDKAL1, CDKN2A/2B, and IGF2BP2 polymorphism with T2DM in the Uttarakhand population. For HHEX, the genotype and allelic frequencies difference between T2DM cases and control were statistically non-significant. However, a significant association of HHEX gene polymorphism with T2DM was observed only under the dominant model.
