▶A Diabetes-Associated Genetic Variant is Associated with Diastolic Dysfunction and Cardiovascular DiseaseAssociationN=15,215John Molvin et al.(2020)· ESC Heart Failure
This association study examined 43 diabetes-related SNPs in relation to diastolic dysfunction and cardiovascular disease across two Swedish cohorts. HNF1B rs757210 (T-allele) was the main finding, associated with prevalent diastolic dysfunction in both the discovery cohort (MPP-RES; OR 1.21, P=0.024) and replication cohort (VARA; OR 1.38, P=0.042), and with increased risk of incident CVD (HR 1.05, P=0.042) but not CHF over 30+ years of follow-up.
▶Excess maternal transmission of variants in the THADA gene to offspring with type 2 diabetesAssociationN=5,674Rashmi B. Prasad et al.(2016)· Diabetologia
Family-based study examining parent-of-origin effects (POE) on type 2 diabetes risk in 4,211 individuals from Botnia and 1,463 from the Hungarian Transdanubian Biobank. Three loci showed nominal POE, with the strongest signal at rs7578597 in THADA showing excess maternal transmission of the risk T allele to diabetic offspring (Botnia pPOE=0.01, HTB pPOE=0.045, combined pPOE=0.0006). Five CpG sites flanking rs7578597 showed differential methylation between diabetic and non-diabetic islets, supporting potential THADA imprinting. Meta-analysis confirmed association with type 2 diabetes (OR=1.24, 95% CI 1.12-1.36, p=1.96×10⁻⁵).
▶Identification of CpG-SNPs associated with type 2 diabetes and differential DNA methylation in human pancreatic isletsAssociationN=84Dayeh TA et al.(2013)· Diabetologia
Of 40 SNPs previously associated with type 2 diabetes, 19 (48%) introduce or remove CpG sites. In 84 human pancreatic islet donors, all 16 analyzed CpG-SNPs showed statistically significant differential DNA methylation (p≤2.3×10⁻⁵). Several CpG-SNPs including rs391300 (SRR), rs5945326 (DUSP9), rs11708067 (ADCY5), rs5015480 (HHEX), rs13266634 (SLC30A8), rs1801214 (WFS1), rs564398 (CDKN2A), and rs2237895 (KCNQ1) were associated with differential gene expression, alternative splicing, or hormone secretion, suggesting DNA methylation-mediated mechanisms linking genetic variants to type 2 diabetes pathogenesis.
About PRC1
This gene encodes a protein that is involved in cytokinesis. The protein is present at high levels during the S and G2/M phases of mitosis but its levels drop dramatically when the cell exits mitosis and enters the G1 phase. It is located in the nucleus during interphase, becomes associated with mitotic spindles in a highly dynamic manner during mitosis, and localizes to the cell mid-body during cytokinesis. This protein has been shown to be a substrate of several cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). It is necessary for polarizing parallel microtubules and concentrating the factors responsible for contractile ring assembly. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
