MTNR1B genetic polymorphisms as risk factors for gestational diabetes mellitus: a case-control study in a single tertiary care center.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a metabolic disease in pregnancy that causes carbohydrate intolerance and hyper-glycemia. Genome-wide association studies and meta-analyses have found that the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs1387153 and rs10830963 of the melatonin receptor 1B ( MTNR1B) gene are associated with GDM. No studies on the MTNR1B gene effect on GDM have been performed in Saudis, other Arabs, or other Middle Eastern populations. OBJECTIVES:Investigate the association of genotype or allele frequencies of the two SNPs with GDM and with clinical parameters related to GDM. DESIGN:Case-control study. SETTINGS:Tertiary care center, Riyadh. PATIENTS AND METHODS:We recruited 400 pregnant Saudi women ages 18-45 years (200 were diagnosed with GDM, and 200 were healthy controls). Biochemical assays were performed, and rs1387153 and rs10830963 polymorphisms were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis and real-time polymerase chain reaction with TaqMan genotyping. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:The association of MTNR1B gene (rs1387153 and rs10830963 polymorphisms) with GDM and with biochemical parameters related to GDM. SAMPLE SIZE:200 GDM cases and 200 non-GDM controls. RESULTS:Differences in allele frequencies for GDM vs non-GMD were statistically significant or nearly significant for both SNPs after adjustment for age and body mass index. In a logistic regression analysis, genotype TT was positively associated with post-prandial blood glucose (P=.018), but other associations were not statistically significant. CONCLUSION:The odds ratios for the associations between the rs1387153 and rs10830963 SNPs and GDM exceeded 1.5-fold, which is higher than typically reported for diseases with complex genetic background. These effect sizes for GDM suggest pregnancy-specific factors related to the MTNR1B risk genotypes. LIMITATIONS:Only two SNPs were studied. CONFLICT OF INTEREST:None.

Project description:BackgroundGestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) increased risk of perinatal complications for both the women and the fetuses. The association between the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphism and GDM has not been thoroughly investigated in Chinese pregnant women. Therefore, we aimed to determine whether VDR gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs154410, rs7975232, rs731236, rs2228570 and rs739837 contribute to GDM risk in Wuhan, China. Moreover, we aimed to explore their combined effects on the risk of GDM.MethodsPregnant women who had prenatal examinations at 24 to 28 weeks' gestation in our hospital from January 15, 2018 to March 31, 2019 were included in this case-control study. After exclusion, a total of 1684 pregnant women (826 GDM patients and 858 non-diabetic controls) were recruited. The clinical information and blood samples were collected by trained interviewers and nurses. Genotyping of candidate SNPs was conducted on the Sequenom MassARRAY platform. Statistical analyses including t-test, ANOVA, chi-square test and logistic regression were performed to the data with SPSS Software to evaluate differences in genotype distribution and associations with GDM risk. Multifactor dimensionality reduction method was used to explore the gene-gene interactions on the risk of GDM.ResultsDifferences in age, pre-pregnancy BMI, family history of diabetes and previous history of GDM between the case and control groups were statistically significant (P < 0.05), whereas no significant differences were found in height, gravidity, parity, and age of menarche (P > 0.05). There were no significant differences at genotype distributions of the examined VDR gene SNPs (P > 0.05). After adjusting by age, pre-pregnancy BMI, family history of diabetes, the results of logistic regression analysis showed no associations of the five SNPs with GDM in all the four genotype models(P > 0.05). Furthermore, there were no gene-gene interactions on the GDM risk among the five examined VDR gene SNPs.ConclusionsThe VDR gene SNPs rs154410, rs7975232, rs731236, rs2228570 and rs739837 showed neither significant associations nor gene-gene interactions with GDM in Wuhan, China.

Project description:BackgroundGestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is the most common complication during pregnancy, occurring under the combined action of environmental and genetic factors. Genetic variants of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) have been reported to affect insulin secretion and susceptibility to type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to explore the role of GLP-1R polymorphisms in GDM and glucose metabolism.MethodsA two-center nested case‒control study was designed, including 200 pregnant women with GDM and 200 pregnant women without GDM genotyped for five tag SNPs of GLP-1R using Sanger sequencing. Logistic regression was used to evaluate the relationship between GLP-1R polymorphisms and GDM risk. Glucose and insulin concentrations were measured based upon the 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Beta cell function of different genotypes was estimated with the 60 min insulinogenic index (IGI60) and OGTT-derived disposition index (DI).ResultsMutant genotype AG + GG of tag SNP rs6458093 nominally increased GDM risk (p = 0.049), especially among subjects younger than 35 years (p = 0.024) and with BMI no less than 24 (p = 0.041), after adjusting for confounders. Meanwhile, compared with subjects with wild genotype AA, subjects with genotype AG + GG of rs6458093 also showed nominally significantly lower IGI60 (p = 0.032) and DI (p = 0.029), as well as significantly higher 75 g OGTT-based 1 h glucose load plasma glucose levels (p = 0.045). Moreover, the mutant heterozygous genotype GA of tag SNP rs3765467 nominally decreased GDM risk among subjects older than 35 years (p = 0.037) but showed no association with insulin secretion and glucose homeostasis.ConclusionsTag SNP rs6458093 of GLP-1R was nominally associated with increased GDM risk and affected beta cell function and postprandial glucose metabolism, while tag SNP rs3765467 of GLP-1R was nominally associated with decreased GDM risk, providing evidence for molecular markers and etiological study of GDM.
