Association of JAZF1 and TSPAN8/LGR5 variants in relation to type 2 diabetes mellitus in a Saudi population.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic and multifactorial disease with a rapidly rising incidence in Saudi Arabia. Various genes including zinc finger protein 1 (JAZF1) and tetraspanin 8/leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein-coupled receptor (TSPAN8/LGR5) have been previously described to be associated with T2DM. This study investigated the association of JAZF1 (rs864745) and TSPAN8 (rs7961581) with T2DM in a Saudi population. METHODS:Genomic DNA samples from 400 Saudi T2DM patients and 400 healthy controls were genotyped and analyzed using a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. The difference between the genotype frequencies were carried out with Chi-square test. Odds ratio, 95 % confidence intervals and p values were calculated using multinomial logistic regression. Dominant and recessive models were implemented to show the statistical significances. Analysis of variance was used to compare differences between genotypes for the various parameters. RESULTS:Distribution frequencies of the AA, AG, and GG genotypes of JAZF1 (rs864745) differed significantly among T2DM patients and healthy controls (p < 0.05). The AG and GG genotypes were independently and significantly associated with a T2DM risk after adjusting for factors such as age, sex, and body mass index [odds ratio (OR) 2.1 (95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.3-3.4); p = 0.002] and [OR 1.9 (95 % CI 1.2-3.1); p = 0.005], respectively. A genotype-based stratification of anthropometric and biochemical data revealed that the AG + GG genotype is associated with waist circumference (p = 0.04) and fasting blood glucose (p = 0.01) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels (p = 0.02). None of the allele or genotype showed the significant association between the T2DM cases and control subjects in rs7961581 polymorphism in TSPAN8/LGR5 gene. CONCLUSION:The rs864745 variant in JAZF1 gene may act as genetic risk factors for the development of T2DM in a Saudi population.

Project description:SIRT1 has been demonstrated in nutrient-sensing and insulin-signaling pathways in in vivo and in vitro experiments, but there is minimal information concerning the association between gene polymorphisms of SIRT1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in a Chinese Han population. Using case-control design, we recruited 310 unrelated T2DM patients from inpatients at Shanghai Jiao Tong University Affiliated Sixth People's Hospital, while 301 healthy controls were volunteers from the community for regular medical checkup. All participants were genotyped within the SIRT1 region. The following five SNPs rs10509291, rs12778366, rs10997870, rs10823112, and rs4746720 cover 100% of common genetic variations (minor allele frequency≥0.05) within the SIRT1 gene (r2≥0.8). The genotypes of SIRT1 gene polymorphisms were analyzed by the Snapshot assay and DNA sequencing. The resulting data show that there was significant genetic differentiation in rs10823112 [p=0.003; OR (95% CI)=1.515 (1.152-1.994) for genotype], rs4746720 [p=0.024; OR (95% CI)=1.37 (1.037-1.674) for genotype], and rs10509291 [p=0.002; OR (95% CI)=1.551 (1.179-2.04) for genotype] between T2DM and control subjects. However, the result of rs4746720 was no longer significant after correction for multiple testing (p after Bonferroni correction=0.12); the results of rs10509291and rs10823112 were still significantly different between the two groups (p after Bonferroni correction=0.01 and 0.015, respectively). Linear regression analyses adjusting for age, gender, and body mass index (BMI) showed that HbA1c and HOMA-IR in subjects with rs10509291 AA genotype were higher than those with TT genotype in T2DM group (p=0.045, p=0.035, respectively). Together, our data show that genetic variation of the SIRT1 gene is related to insulin resistance and increase risk of T2DM in Chinese Han population. The risk allele A at SIRT1 rs10509291 was closely associated with T2DM, and subjects who were homozygous of the A allele were more likely to develop T2DM.
