▶Candidate gene association study of type 2 diabetes in a nested case‐control study of the EPIC‐Potsdam cohort – Role of fat assimilationAssociationN=576Eva Fisher et al.(2007)· Molecular Nutrition & Food Research
Candidate gene association study screening 15 genes involved in fat assimilation for type 2 diabetes susceptibility. In 192 cases and 384 controls from EPIC-Potsdam, six SNPs showed significant associations: FABP6 Thr79Met (rs1130435, OR=0.45, 95% CI 0.22-0.92) showed the strongest protective effect; DBI rs2084202 and rs8192506 (Met71Val), PTGES2 rs13283456 (Arg298His, OR=0.64), SLC27A5 promoter variant (OR=0.54), and novel CLPS Ala109Cys variant (OR=5.83) also associated with diabetes risk. Results provide preliminary evidence for fat assimilation genes in type 2 diabetes susceptibility but require further verification.
▶Association analyses of GIP and GIPR polymorphisms with traits of the metabolic syndromeAssociationN=17,309Inke Nitz et al.(2007)· Molecular Nutrition & Food Research
This association study examined three GIPR (gastric inhibitory polypeptide receptor) SNPs (rs8111428, rs2302382, rs1800437) across 761 German obesity families and validation samples. The A-allele of rs2302382 showed significant association with obesity (OR=1.54, 95% CI 1.09-2.19, p=0.014 in case-control analysis) and was over-transmitted in families (p=0.0089), while rs8111428 G-allele also showed transmission disequilibrium (p=0.0016). However, results were conflicting in population-based studies: KORA showed a trend toward increased BMI with the A-allele (p=0.136) while SHIP showed an opposite association (p=0.031), suggesting geographic or phenotypic stratification effects.
About GIPR
This gene encodes a G-protein coupled receptor for gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP), which was originally identified as an activity in gut extracts that inhibited gastric acid secretion and gastrin release, but subsequently was demonstrated to stimulate insulin release in the presence of elevated glucose. Mice lacking this gene exhibit higher blood glucose levels with impaired initial insulin response after oral glucose load. Defect in this gene thus may contribute to the pathogenesis of diabetes.
