▶Type 2 diabetes risk alleles near ADCY5, CDKAL1 and HHEX-IDE are associated with reduced birthweightAssociationN=4,213Andersson EA et al.(2010)· Diabetologia
This association study of 4,213 Danish individuals examined 25 type 2 diabetes risk variants and their association with birthweight. The study found that type 2 diabetes risk alleles near ADCY5 (rs11708067, β = -33 g, p = 0.004), CDKAL1 (rs7756992, β = -22 g, p = 0.04), and HHEX-IDE (rs1111875, β = -16 g in meta-analysis, p = 8×10⁻⁵, n = 25,164) were associated with reduced birthweight, supporting the fetal insulin hypothesis. Meta-analyses confirmed these associations and showed no strong general effect on birthweight from the 25 common type 2 diabetes risk alleles combined.
About ADCY5
This gene encodes a member of the membrane-bound adenylyl cyclase enzymes. Adenylyl cyclases mediate G protein-coupled receptor signaling through the synthesis of the second messenger cAMP. Activity of the encoded protein is stimulated by the Gs alpha subunit of G protein-coupled receptors and is inhibited by protein kinase A, calcium and Gi alpha subunits. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with low birth weight and type 2 diabetes. Alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]
