The rs10830963 variant of melatonin receptor MTNR1B is associated with increased risk for gestational diabetes mellitus in a Greek population
AssociationN=1,025Margarita Vlassi et al.(2012)· Hormones

This case-control study investigated 25 T2DM-associated SNPs in a multi-ethnic Hawaiian cohort (291 GDM cases, 734 controls) and found ethnicity-specific associations with gestational diabetes. Key findings in Filipinos included rs1113132 (EXT2, OR=1.52, p=0.028), rs1111875 (HHEX, OR=1.5, p=0.047), rs2237892 (KCNQ1, OR=0.49, p<0.001), rs10830963 (MTNR1B, OR=0.63, p=0.025), and rs13266634 (SLC30A8, OR=0.58, p=0.011). In Japanese women, rs4402960 (IGFBP2, OR=0.5, p=0.031) and rs2237892 (KCNQ1, OR=0.5, p=0.03) were significant. Pacific Islanders showed associations with rs10830963 (MTNR1B, OR=0.52, p=0.037) and rs13266634 (SLC30A8, OR=2.43, p=0.03). No SNPs showed consistent associations across all three ethnic groups.

Genetic analysis of recently identified type 2 diabetes loci in 1,638 unselected patients with type 2 diabetes and 1,858 control participants from a Norwegian population-based cohort (the HUNT study)
AssociationN=3,496Hertel JK et al.(2008)· Diabetologia

This replication study tested newly identified type 2 diabetes susceptibility loci in a Norwegian population-based cohort of 1,638 type 2 diabetes patients and 1,858 controls. The authors confirmed associations for rs10811661 near CDKN2B (OR 1.20, p=0.004), rs9939609 in FTO (OR 1.14, p=0.006), and rs13266634 in SLC30A8 (OR 1.20, p=3.9×10⁻⁴). They found borderline association for rs4402960 in IGFBP2 (OR 1.10, p=0.074) but no support for SNPs near FLJ39370 and PKN2.
