Association of the LINGO2-related SNP rs10968576 with body mass in a cohort of elderly Swedes

AssociationN=949Mathias Rask-Andersen et al.(2015)· Molecular Genetics and Genomics

Association study of 35 GWAS-identified body mass SNPs in 949 elderly Swedish participants (mean age 70-75 years). Significant association found between rs10968576 (LINGO2, intron 4) and BMI with a larger effect size (β = 0.69 kg/m²) than reported in younger populations, suggesting age-specific genetic effects on body mass in the elderly.

Association studies of novel obesity-related gene variants with quantitative metabolic phenotypes in a population-based sample of 6,039 Danish individuals

AssociationN=6,039Burgdorf KS et al.(2012)· Diabetologia

This association study investigates 18 BMI-associated and 14 WHR-associated gene variants identified by prior GWAS in 6,039 Danish individuals from the Inter99 cohort. The study found that QPCTL rs2287019 C allele was associated with increased insulinogenic index (7.4%, p=4.0×10⁻⁷) and disposition index (5.6%, p=6.4×10⁻⁵), while LRP1B rs2890652 C allele was associated with insulin resistance (3.3% increase in HOMA-IR, p=0.0011). For WHR variants, LYPLAL1/SLC30A10 rs4846567 G allele carriers showed improved insulin sensitivity (5.2% lower HOMA-IR in women, p=0.00086), whereas VEGFA rs6905288 A allele carriers showed insulin resistance in women (3.7% increase in HOMA-IR, p=0.00036).
