Genetic variation in the carbonyl reductase 3 gene confers risk of type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance: a potential regulator of adipogenesis
AssociationN=8,075Chang YC et al.(2012)· Journal of Molecular Medicine

This case-control association study identified rs10483032 in the CBR3 gene as associated with type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance in Chinese populations (combined OR = 1.29, 95% CI = 1.14-1.47, P < 0.0001). The association was replicated in multiple Chinese samples and validated in the FUSION GWAS. Functional studies demonstrated CBR3 expression increases during adipocyte differentiation, and CBR3 knockdown enhanced adipogenesis, suggesting the risk variant modulates type 2 diabetes susceptibility through effects on adipogenesis and insulin sensitivity.

About CBR3

Carbonyl reductase 3 catalyzes the reduction of a large number of biologically and pharmacologically active carbonyl compounds to their corresponding alcohols. The enzyme is classified as a monomeric NADPH-dependent oxidoreductase. CBR3 contains three exons spanning 11.2 kilobases and is closely linked to another carbonyl reductase gene - CBR1.
