Association of ADIPOQ variants with type 2 diabetes mellitus susceptibility in ethnic Han Chinese from northeast China.

ABSTRACT: AIMS/INTRODUCTION:To investigate the association between two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; rs3774261 and rs822393) in the ADIPOQ gene and type 2 diabetes mellitus in Han Chinese from northeast China. MATERIALS AND METHODS:The present study comprised 993 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients and 966 unrelated controls from northeastern China. Two SNPs were sequenced using SNPscan. The distribution of genotype frequencies of the two SNPs in ADIPOQ between cases and controls, and in subgroups stratified based on body mass index, were compared using logistic regression analysis. Linear regression was used to analyze the association between each SNP and clinical indicators. RESULTS:The GG genotype of rs3774261 increased the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus compared with the AA genotype in participants with a body mass index <24 (P = 0.021; odds ratio 1.636, 95% CI 1.708-2.484). Rs822393 was correlated with glycosylated hemoglobin (P = 0.043) in controls. Rs3774261 had an association with diastolic blood pressure (P = 0.017) in controls, and in controls with a body mass index <24; rs3774261 also had an association with both systolic blood pressure (P = 0.025) and diastolic blood pressure (P = 0.043). CONCLUSIONS:The present results confirm the association between ADIPOQ variants and type 2 diabetes mellitus in northeastern China. However, additional larger replication studies are required to validate these findings.
