Association of ISL1 polymorphisms and eosinophilic levels among otitis media patients
AssociationN=562Abhishek Kondyarpu et al.(2021)· Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis

A case-control study of 285 otitis media patients and 277 controls in an Indian population identified a significant association of ISL1 gene variants (rs2303751, rs121913540) with chronic otitis media and hearing-related disorders. The c.504A>G (rs2303751) variant showed OR 0.74 (95% CI 0.57-0.95, p=0.024), and c.513G>A (rs121913540) showed OR 0.43 (95% CI 0.20-0.91, p=0.03), both indicating protective effects. Secondary analysis revealed eosinophil percentage was significantly associated with the c.504A>G polymorphism (p<0.0001).

Lack of Association of the 3′-UTR Polymorphism (rs1017) in the ISL1 Gene and Risk of Congenital Heart Disease in the White Population
AssociationN=809Monica Cresci et al.(2013)· Pediatric Cardiology

A case-control study of 309 CHD patients and 500 healthy controls in a white population found no significant association between the ISL1 rs1017 3'-UTR polymorphism and congenital heart disease risk (OR 1.1, 95% CI 0.7-1.5, p=0.7), contradicting earlier findings suggesting rs1017 increased CHD susceptibility. Results were consistent across sex-stratified and CHD-type-specific subgroups.

About ISL1

This gene encodes a member of the LIM/homeodomain family of transcription factors. The encoded protein binds to the enhancer region of the insulin gene, among others, and may play an important role in regulating insulin gene expression. The encoded protein is central to the development of pancreatic cell lineages and may also be required for motor neuron generation. Mutations in this gene have been associated with maturity-onset diabetes of the young. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
