ABSTRACT: Purpose
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between rs13266634 polymorphism in SLC30A8 gene and type 2 diabetes in Iranian population, and also to provide a way for adjusting the deviation from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.Methods
This was a case-control study, the patients were selected from the East Azerbaijan province, Iran. In this study, 125 patients with type 2 diabetes (cases) and 125 healthy individuals (controls) were studied. Genotype and allele frequencies were determined in both groups, and the deviations from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were assessed using Bayesian analysis.Results
A statistically significant association was observed between rs13266634 polymorphism in SLC30A8 gene and type 2 diabetes. In genotype assessing, data analysis showed that, TT genotype play a role in diabetes type 2 risk (P = 0.001). Subjects with TT genotype had a lower risk of diabetes compared to those with CC and CT genotypes. Also, there was no significant relationship between this polymorphism and type 2 diabetes mellitus in the absence of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.Conclusion
Our findings show that, rs13266634 polymorphism was associated with the type 2 diabetes risk in the population of Eastern Azerbaijan province; however, the low number of TT homozygous genotypes affected the precision of the results. Also, the deviation from HWE affected the results. It is recommended to perform further studies to establish Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The inconsistency in the results may be due to the ignorance of this equilibrium.

Project description:BackgroundAccumulating but inconsistent data about the role of rs13266634 variant of SLC30A8 in type 2 diabetes have been reported, partly due to small sample sizes and non-identical ethnicity.Material and methodsWe searched PubMed and Cochrane Library to identify eligible studies and extract data of baseline characteristics, genotype count, odds ratio (OR), and 95% confidence interval (CI). Both adjusted OR with 95% CI and genotype counts were employed to assess the association. Genotype data were further pooled to provide estimates under different genetic models and the most appropriate model was determined. Sensitivity and cumulative analysis were conducted to assure the strength of results.ResultsFifty-five datasets of 39 studies (including 38 of 24 with genotype count) were included. Significant associations were found in allelic contrasts using adjusted ORs and raw genotype count, respectively, overall in Asian and European populations (overall: OR=1.147/1.157, 95% CI 1.114-1.181/1.135-1.180; Asian: OR=1.186/1.165, 95% CI 1.150-1.222/1.132-1.198; European: OR=1.100/1.151, 95% CI 1.049-1.153/1.120-1.183; All p=0.00), but not in African populations (African: OR=1.255/1.111, 95% CI 0.964-1.634/0.908-1.360, p=0.091/0.305). Further analysis with genotype count under different genetic models all showed that individuals with CC genotype had 33.0% and 16.5% higher risk of type 2 diabetes than those carrying TT and CT genotypes, respectively, under the most likely codominant model. Cumulative analysis indicated gradually improved precision of estimation after studies accumulated.ConclusionsOur results suggest that rs13266634 may be an important genetic factor of type 2 diabetes risk among Asian and European but not African populations.

Project description:Objective:Zinc transporter 8 (ZnT8) is a multi-transmembrane protein situated in the insulin secretory granule of the islets of ?-cells and is identified as a novel auto-antigen in type 1 diabetes (T1D). The gene coding for ZnT8, solute carrier family 30 member 8 (SLC30A8) is located on chromosome 8q24.11. This study aimed to identify the association of SLC30A8 rs13266634 C/T gene polymorphism with T1D in a sample of T1D children in Tamil Nadu, India. Methods:The family based study was conducted in 121 T1D patients and 214 of their family members as controls. The SLC30A8 gene rs13266634 C/T polymorphism was evaluated by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Results:No significant differences were observed in either allele (odds ratio: 0.92; confidence interval: 0.33-2.58; p=0.88) and genotype (CC: p=0.74; CT: p=0.82; TT: p=0.80) frequencies of rs13266634 C/T between T1D patients and controls. Transmission disequilibrium test has identified over-transmission of mutant T allele from parents to affected children (T: U=9:7) without statistical significance. Metaanalysis on the overall effects of rs13266634 C allele frequency was not different (p=0.10 and Pheterogeneity=0.99) in T1D patients as compared to the controls. Conclusion:The present study along with the meta-analysis does not show any substantial association of the rs13266634 C/T polymorphism with T1D development in this population.

Project description:Introduction: Published data regarding the association between solute carrier family 30, member 8 (SLC30A8) rs13266634 polymorphism and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and impaired glucose regulation (IGR) risks in Chinese population are in-consistent. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the association between SLC30A8 rs13266634 and T2DM/IGR in a Chinese population. Material and Methods: Three English (PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science) and three Chinese databases (Wanfang, CNKI, and CBMD database) were used for searching articles from January 2005 to January 2018. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) were calculated with the random-effect model. Trial sequential analysis was also utilized. Results: Twenty-eight case-control studies with 25,912 cases and 26,975 controls were included for SLC30A8 and T2DM. Pooled risk allele C frequency for rs13266634 was 60.6% (95%CI: 59.2-62.0%) in the T2DM group and 54.8% (95%CI: 53.2-56.4%) in the control group which had estimated OR of 1.23 (95%CI: 1.17-1.28). Individuals who carried major homozygous CC and heterozygous CT genotype were at 1.51 and 1.23 times higher risk of T2DM, respectively, than those carrying minor homozygous TT. The most appropriate genetic analysis model was the co-dominant model based on comparison of OR1, OR2 and OR3. Five articles that involved 4,627 cases and 6,166 controls were included for SLC30A8 and IGR. However, no association was found between SLC30A8 rs13266634 and IGR (C vs. T, OR = 1.13, 95%CI: 0.98-1.30, p = 0.082). TSA revealed that the pooled sample sizes of T2DM exceeded the estimated required information size but not the IGR. Conclusion: The present meta-analysis demonstrated that SLC30A8 rs13266634 was a potential risk factor for T2DM, and more studies should be performed to confirm the association between rs13266634 polymorphism and IGR.

Project description:BackgroundTo a great extent, genetic factors contribute to the susceptibility to type 1 diabetes (T1D) development, and by triggering immune imbalance, Toll-like receptor (TLR) 9 is involved in the development of T1D. However, there is a lack of evidence supporting a genetic association between polymorphisms in the TLR9 gene and T1D.MethodsIn total, 1513 individuals, including T1D patients (n=738) and healthy control individuals (n=775), from the Han Chinese population were recruited for an association analysis of the rs352140 polymorphism of the TLR9 gene and T1D. rs352140 was genotyped by MassARRAY. The allele and genotype distributions of rs352140 in the T1D and healthy groups and those in different T1D subgroups were analyzed by the chi-squared test and binary logistic regression model. The chi-square test and Kruskal-Wallis H test were performed to explore the association between genotype and phenotype in T1D patients.ResultsThe allele and genotype distributions of rs352140 were significantly different in T1D patients and healthy control individuals (p=0.019, p=0.035). Specifically, the T allele and TT genotype of rs352140 conferred a higher risk of T1D (OR=1.194, 95% CI=1.029-1.385, p=0.019, OR=1.535, 95% CI=1.108-2.126, p=0.010). The allele and genotype distributions of rs352140 were not significantly different between childhood-onset and adult-onset T1D and between T1D with a single islet autoantibody and T1D with multiple islet autoantibodies (p=0.603, p=0.743). rs352140 was associated with T1D susceptibility according to the recessive and additive models (p=0.015, p=0.019) but was not associated with T1D susceptibility in the dominant and overdominant models (p=0.117, p=0.928). Moreover, genotype-phenotype association analysis showed that the TT genotype of rs352140 was associated with higher fasting C-peptide levels (p=0.017).ConclusionIn the Han Chinese population, the TLR9 polymorphism rs352140 is associated with T1D and is a risk factor for susceptibility to T1D.

Project description:This study aims to investigate the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in an Uighur population. One hundred and fourteen T2DM male patients (with a history of diabetes or diagnosed as diabetic by the oral glucose tolerance test) and 173 healthy males from the Uighur ethnic group were included in the study to test the following SNPs of SHBG: rs727428, rs1799941, rs6259, rs6257, rs858521, rs858518, rs3760213, and rs11078701. The body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, and waist circumference, and lipid, glucose, HbA1c, insulin, HOMA-IR, testosterone, and SHBG levels of enrolled individuals were measured. We used the t-test or rank sum test and Chi-square test to analyze the difference and compare numeration data, respectively, between the case and control groups. Comparisons among multiple groups were carried out using analysis of variance, and the correlation between variables was determined by nonparametric Spearman rank correlation analysis; multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to assess the risk of abnormal glucose in the two groups. There was a significant difference (P < 0.05) in BMI, blood pressure, and waist circumference, and lipid, glucose, HbA1c, insulin, and HOMA-IR levels between the case and control groups. The risk factors for diabetes included testosterone (P = 0.042) and SHBG (P = 0.001). The distribution of rs858521 (P = 0.001), rs1799941 (2.3%, P = 0.032), rs6259 (2.5%, P = 0.040), and rs727428 (3.4%, P = 0.016) was significantly different between the case and control groups (P < 0.05). In the control group, there was linkage disequilibrium (LD) between rs727428 and rs6259, while in the case group LD was found among rs858518, rs3760213, rs1799941, and rs6257. The frequency of rs858518-rs3760213-rs1799941-rs6257 haplotype TCGC was significantly different between the two groups (P = 0.033). Both testosterone and SHBGwere found to be risk factors of diabetes in the Uighur population, and SNPs of SHBG may contribute to T2DM.

Project description:It was recently shown that the major allele of the SLC30A8 (zinc transporter 8, ZnT8) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs13266634 was associated with type 2 diabetes and with reduced insulin secretion in non-diabetic relatives. Because of its role in beta-cell function, we hypothesized that this candidate SNP may confer increased susceptibility for beta-cell destruction in type 1 diabetes. We analyzed SLC30A8 genotypes in 874 patients with type 1 diabetes and 1021 control subjects. No difference in allele and genotype frequencies of the SLC30A8 SNP rs13266634 was found between patients and controls. Analysis with respect to age at type 1 diabetes onset, however, showed that patients with a diabetes onset before age 5 years had an increased prevalence of the cytosine (C) allele (risk allele, 82%) and the homozygous CC genotype (65%) compared to patients who developed type 1 diabetes after age 5 years (67% and 49%; p < 0.01) and compared to controls (69% and 48%; p < 0.03). These data suggest that genetic susceptibility for beta-cell dysfunction in the presence of autoimmunity may lead to accelerated progression and early manifestation of the disease.

Project description:SLC30A8 encodes zinc transporter 8 which is involved in packaging and release of insulin. Evidence for the association of SLC30A8 variants with type 2 diabetes (T2D) is inconclusive. We interrogated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) around SLC30A8 for association with T2D in high-risk, pedigreed individuals from extended Mexican American families. This study of 118 SNPs within 50 kb of the SLC30A8 locus tested the association with eight T2D-related traits at four levels: (i) each SNP using measured genotype approach (MGA); (ii) interaction of SNPs with age and sex; (iii) combinations of SNPs using Bayesian Quantitative Trait Nucleotide (BQTN) analyses; and (iv) entire gene locus using the gene burden test. Only one SNP (rs7817754) was significantly associated with incident T2D but a summary statistic based on all T2D-related traits identified 11 novel SNPs. Three SNPs and one SNP were weakly but interactively associated with age and sex, respectively. BQTN analyses could not demonstrate any informative combination of SNPs over MGA. Lastly, gene burden test results showed that at best the SLC30A8 locus could account for only 1-2% of the variability in T2D-related traits. Our results indicate a lack of association of the SLC30A8 SNPs with T2D in Mexican American families.

Project description:Zinc transporter eight (SLC30A8) is a major target of autoimmunity in human type 1A diabetes and is implicated in type 2 diabetes in genome-wide association studies. The type 2 diabetes nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) affecting aa(325) lies within the region of highest ZnT8 autoantibody (ZnT8A) binding, prompting an investigation of its relationship to type 1 diabetes.ZnT8A radioimmunoprecipitation assays were performed in 421 new-onset type 1 diabetic Caucasians using COOH-terminal constructs incorporating the known human aa(325) variants (Trp, Arg, and Gln). Genotypes were determined by PCR-based SNP analysis. RESULTS-Sera from 224 subjects (53%) were reactive to Arg(325) probes, from 185 (44%) to Trp(325)probes, and from 142 (34%) to Gln(325)probes. Sixty subjects reacted only with Arg(325) constructs, 31 with Trp(325) only, and 1 with Gln(325) only. The restriction to either Arg(325) or Trp(325) corresponded with inheritance of the respective C- or T-alleles. A strong gene dosage effect was also evident because both Arg- and Trp-restricted ZnT8As were less prevalent in heterozygous than homozygous individuals. The SLC30A8 SNP allele frequency (75% C and 25% T) varied little with age of type 1 diabetes onset or the presence of other autoantibodies.The finding that diabetes autoimmunity can be defined by a single polymorphic residue has not previously been documented. It argues against ZnT8 autoimmunity arising from molecular mimicry and suggests a mechanistic link between the two major forms of diabetes. It has implications for antigen-based therapeutic interventions because the response to ZnT8 administration could be protective or immunogenic depending on an individual's genotype.

Project description:BackgroundEvidence from genetic epidemiology indicates that type 2 diabetes (T2D) has a strong genetic basis. Activated STAT4 has an inflammatory effect, and STAT4 is an important mediator of inflammation in diabetes. Our study aimed to study the association between STAT4 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and T2D susceptibility in Chinese Han population.MethodsWe conducted a 'case-control' study among 500 T2D patients and 501 healthy individuals. 5 candidate STAT4 SNPs were successfully genotyped. The association between SNPs and T2D susceptibility under different genetic models was evaluated by logistic regression analysis. 'SNP-SNP' interaction was analyzed and completed by multi-factor dimensionality reduction (MDR). Finally, we evaluated the differences of clinical characteristics under different genotypes by one-factor analysis of variance.ResultsThe overall results showed that STAT4 rs3821236 was associated with increasing T2D risk under allele (OR 1.23, p = 0.020), homozygous (OR 1.51, p = 0.025), dominant (OR 1.36, p = 0.029), and additive models (OR 1.23, p = 0.020). The results of stratified analysis showed that rs3821236, rs11893432, and rs11889341 were risk factors for T2D among participants ≤ 60 years old. Only rs11893432 was associated with increased T2D risk among female participants. There was also a potential association between rs3821236 and T2D with nephropathy risk. STAT4 rs11893432, rs7574865 and rs897200 were significantly associated with lysophosphatidic acid, cystatin C and thyroxine t4, respectively.ConclusionThe genetic polymorphisms of STAT4 is potentially associated with T2D susceptibility of Chinese population. In particular, rs3821236 is significantly associated with T2D risk both in the overall and several subgroup analyses. Our study may provide new ideas for T2D individualized diagnosis/protection.

Project description:BackgroundKCNQ1 (potassium voltage-gated channel KQT-like sub-family, member 1) encodes a pore-forming subunit of a voltage-gated K(+) channel (KvLQT1) that plays a key role for the repolarization of the cardiac action potential as well as water and salt transport in epithelial tissues. Recently, genome-wide association studies have identified KCNQ1 as a type 2 diabetes (T2D) susceptibility gene in populations of Asian descent. After that, a number of studies reported that the rs2237892 and rs2237895 polymorphism in KCNQ1 has been implicated in T2D risk. However, studies on the association between these polymorphism and T2D remain conflicting. To investigate this inconsistency, we performed this meta-analysis.MethodsDatabases including Pubmed, EMBASE, Web of Science and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) were searched to find relevant studies. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of association. Potential sources of heterogeneity were also assessed by subgroup analysis and meta-regression.ResultsA total of 25 articles involving 70,577 T2D cases and 99,068 controls were included. Overall, the summary odds ratio of C allele for T2D was 1.32 (95% CI 1.26-1.38; P<10-5) and 1.24 (95% CI: 1.20-1.29; P<10-5) for KCNQ1 rs2237892 and rs2237895 polymorphisms, respectively. Significant results were also observed using co-dominant, dominant and recessive genetic models. After stratifying by ethnicity, sample size, and diagnostic criteria, significant associations were also obtained.ConclusionsThis meta-analysis suggests that the rs2237892 and rs2237895 polymorphisms in KCNQ1 are associated with elevated type 2 diabetes susceptibility.
