NOVEL GENETIC FINDINGS IN A CHINESE FAMILY WITH EARLY-ONSET FEMALE-RELATED TYPE 2 DIABETES.

ABSTRACT: No inheritance of early-onset female-related type 2 diabetes was reported within Chinese families. In this study, we aim to describe the inheritance pattern of type 2 diabetes in a 3-generation family and identify the gene responsible for type 2 diabetes. Genome-wide multipoint parametric linkage analysis revealed a maximum multipoint logarithm of odds (lod) score of 2.1 for a locus being associated with type 2 diabetes in this family on chromosome 20p11.2-12 between 23.5~30.8cM. Type 2 diabetes may be transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait with a high female-related penetrance in this family. Here we describe the first genetic locus for type 2 diabetes at chromosome 20p11.2-12. This region contains 8 known or predicted genes (PLCB1, PLCB4, LAMP5, PAK7, ANKEF1, SNAP25, SLX4IP, and JAG1). Gene SNAP25 which linked to energy or glucose homeostasis associated phenotypes may play a role in the development of type 2 diabetes in this family.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough cumulating evidence has suggested that early-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) conferred on patients a broader tendency for complications beyond vascular ones, a comprehensive analysis of patterns of complications across all relevant systems is currently lacking.MethodWe prospectively studied 1 777 early-onset (age at diagnosis ≤ 45 years) and 35 889 late-onset (>45 years) T2DM patients with matched unexposed individuals from the UK Biobank. Diabetes-specific and -related complications were examined using phenome-wide association analysis, with patterns identified by comorbidity network analysis. We also evaluated the effect of lifestyle modifications and glycemic control on complication development.ResultsThe median follow-up times for early-onset and late-onset T2DM patients were 17.83 and 9.39 years, respectively. Compared to late-onset T2DM patients, patients with early-onset T2DM faced a significantly higher relative risk of developing subsequent complications that primarily affected sense organs [hazard ratio (HR) 3.46 vs. 1.72], the endocrine/metabolic system (HR 3.08 vs. 2.01), and the neurological system (HR 2.70 vs. 1.81). Despite large similarities in comorbidity patterns, a more complex and well-connected network was observed for early-onset T2DM. Furthermore, while patients with early-onset T2DM got fewer benefits (12.67% reduction in pooled HR for all studied complications) through fair glycemic control (median HbA1c ≤ 53 mmol/mol) compared to late-onset T2DM patients (18.01% reduction), they seemed to benefit more from favorable lifestyles, including weight control, healthy diet, and adequate physical activity.ConclusionsOur analyses reveal that early-onset T2DM is an aggressive disease resulting in more complex complication networks than late-onset T2DM. Aggressive glucose-lowering intervention, complemented by lifestyle modifications, are feasible strategies for controlling early-onset T2DM-related complications.

Project description:Aims/hypothesisIdentifying individuals suitable for monogenic autoimmunity testing and gene discovery studies is challenging: early-onset type 1 diabetes mellitus can cluster with additional autoimmune diseases due to shared polygenic risk and islet- and other organ-specific autoantibodies are present in both monogenic and polygenic aetiologies. We aimed to assess whether a type 1 diabetes genetic risk score (GRS) could identify monogenic autoimmune diabetes and be useful to prioritise individuals for gene discovery studies.MethodsWe studied 79 individuals with diabetes and at least one additional autoimmune disease diagnosed before the age of 5 years. We screened all participants for the seven genes known to cause monogenic autoimmunity that can include diabetes (AIRE, IL2RA, FOXP3, LRBA, STAT1, STAT3, STAT5B). We genotyped the top ten risk alleles for type 1 diabetes, including HLA and non-HLA loci, to generate a type 1 diabetes GRS.ResultsOf the 79 individuals studied, 37 (47%) had mutations in the monogenic autoimmunity genes. The type 1 diabetes GRS was lower in these individuals than in those without mutations in these genes (median 9th vs 49th centile of type 1 diabetes controls, p < 0.0001). Age of diabetes diagnosis and type 1 diabetes GRS combined to be highly discriminatory of monogenic autoimmunity (receiver operating characteristic AUC: 0.88). Most individuals without a mutation in a known gene had a high type 1 diabetes GRS, suggesting that they have polygenic clustering of type 1 diabetes and additional autoimmunity and should not be included in gene discovery studies.Conclusions/interpretationWe have shown that the type 1 diabetes GRS can identify individuals likely to have monogenic autoimmunity, helping both diagnostic testing and novel monogenic autoimmunity gene discovery. Individuals with monogenic autoimmunity have a different clinical course to those with polygenic type 1 diabetes and can respond well to therapies targeting the underlying genetic defect.
