ABSTRACT
Results There was no significant difference in the distribution of genotypes and allele frequencies of HSP 70-1 and HSP70-hom between case group and control group (P>0.05), but there was significant difference in the distribution of genotypes and allele frequencies of HSP70-2 between the two groups(P0.05)or in the distribution of genotypes of HSP 70-2 between males and females in case group, but there was significant difference in the distribution of allele frequencies of HSP 70-2 in case group .There was no significant difference in the distribution of genotypes and allele frequencies of HSP 70-1 and HSP70-hom between males and females in case or control group .Logistic analysis confirmed that the WC, TG, TC, LDL-C, SBP, family history of diabetes and G allele were risk factors of T 2DM. Conclusion GG genotype and G allele of HSP 70-2 (+1267 ) SNP may be genetic markers for the susceptibility of type 2 diabetes.There is no significant difference in the distribution of genotypes and allele frequencies of HSP 70-1,HSP70-2 and HSP70-hom between Hui and Han nationalities .Family history of diabetes, LDL-C, TC, and G allele of HSP70-2 (+1267) SNP are the main risk factors of T2DM while HDL-C is a protective factor.
