Association study of IL2RA and CTLA4 Gene Variants with Type I Diabetes Mellitus in children in the northwest of Iran.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: A variety of genetic predisposing factors and environmental factors are known to influence the pathogenesis of type-1 diabetes (T1D). This study intended to investigate the association of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated protein 4 (CTLA4) and interleukin 2 receptor subunit alpha (IL2RA) gene polymorphisms with type 1 diabetes in children of northwest of Iran. Methods: Genomic DNA was extracted by salting-out method. PCR amplification and direct sequencing methods were used for genotyping of CTLA4 (exon 1) and IL2RA (intron 1) genes in all patients and controls. SNPStats was used to calculate odds ratios (ORs), 95% confidence intervals (CIs), and p values. Results: In this study, the frequency of G allele and GG genotype of CTLA-4 (+49A/G) polymorphism in T1D patients were significantly different from those in the controls (26% vs. 11%, p = 0.006). Moreover, a significant difference was observed between patients and control group in the allele frequencies of the new SNP (chr2:203868145) that was identified in exon one of CTLA4 (14% vs. 3%, p = 0.006). The results showed that the GG homozygous genotype of +49 A>G was associated with increased glycemic level in T1D patients in the study population (95% CI = 10.47, p = 0.0067). However, no significant association was found between IL2RA (ss52580101C>A) polymorphism and T1D patients (2% vs. 4%, p = 0.41). Conclusion: The results further support the association of T1D with +49A>G SNP in the CTLA4 gene in the population of northwest of Iran. However, no significant relationship was observed between ss52580101C>A polymorphism of IL2RA gene and T1D in this study.

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.
