The association of two common polymorphisms in miRNAs with diabetes mellitus: A meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding single-stranded RNAs with a length of ?21 nucleotides. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may affect the function of miRNAs, resulting in a variety of disorders in vivo. Recently, diabetes mellitus (DM) has become a global healthcare problem, and several studies have reported that 2 common polymorphisms (miRNA 146a rs2910164 and miRNA 27a rs895819) are related to susceptibility to diabetes. Given that no consensus had been reached regarding the association of the 2 polymorphisms with diabetes, we conducted this meta-analysis. METHODS:Four databases (PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane, and Web of Science) were searched up to January 9, 2019. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to evaluate the association strength. Subgroup and sensitivity analyses were also performed. RESULTS:Six studies involving 2585 cases and 2435 controls for miR146a rs2910164 and 5 studies involving 2922 cases and 2781 controls for miR27a rs895819 were ultimately analyzed in our meta-analysis. Based on pooled results, no statistical significance in association between rs2910164 and diabetes in Caucasians, Asians, or type 2 diabetes was observed in any genetic models. Nevertheless, we found a significant correlation between miRNA27a rs895819 and diabetes in the homozygote model (CC vs TT: OR?=?0.58, 95%CI [0.35,0.98]) and recessive model (CC vs CT?+?TT: OR?=?0.59, 95%CI [0.36,0.97]). By performing subgroup analysis, we also observed that C allele conveyed a significant protective effect against diabetes development in Caucasians (C vs T: OR?=?0.67, 95%CI [0.52,0.85]). CONCLUSION:In conclusion, this meta-analysis indicated that miRNA27a rs895819 might play a protective role in diabetes, and miRNA146a rs2910164 likely had no association with diabetes.

Project description:Background:Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disorder with growing prevalence and increasing economic burden. Based on the role of genetics and epigenetic factors on T2DM, we aimed to carry a systematic review and meta-analysis for all miRNA gene polymorphisms and risk of T2DM. Materials and Methods:A computerized literature search was carried out on PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Embase, as well as references of relevant review/meta-analysis. Key search terms were "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2," "MicroRNAs," and "Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide." All types of observational studies from January 1, 1992, to November 30, 2019, were included, without language restriction. Data analysis was performed using R programming language (3.5.2). Level of heterogeneity was obtained by Cochran's Q test (P < 0.05), and subgroup analysis was performed based on ethnicity. Results:Thirty-two polymorphisms from fifteen articles were included. Meta-analysis was carried out based on minor allele frequencies. Seven studies with 2193 cases and 3963 controls were included for rs2910164 polymorphism. In subgroup analysis, there were significant results in Caucasian population in dominant model (odds ratio [OR] =1.12; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.83-1.51), homozygote model (OR = 1.78; 95% CI: 1.06-3.00), heterozygote model (OR = 1.77; 95% CI: 1.03-3.05), and recessive model (OR = 1.78; 95% CI: 1.07-2.96). Four studies with 2085 cases and 1933 controls were included for rs895819 polymorphism. Overall, there was no significant result for association with rs895819, but subgroup analysis revealed that minor allele significantly decreased the risk of T2DM in Caucasians by recessive model (OR = 0.34; 95% CI: 0.18-0.66), dominant model (OR = 0.70; 95% CI: 0.52-0.94), homozygote model (OR = 0.32; 95% CI: 0.16-0.62), heterozygote model (OR = 0.37; 95% CI: 0.19-0.74), allelic model (OR = 0.67; 95% CI: 0.52-0.85). Conclusion:The minor allele of rs2910164 may increase the risk of T2DM by leading to lower level of miR-146a. In contrast, minor allele of rs895819 may decrease the risk of T2DM by leading to higher level of miR-27a.
