Correlation analysis between FXR gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to T2DM / 医学研究生学报

ABSTRACT

Objective The pathogenesis of T2DM has not been elucidated.This study aimed to explore the association of FXR gene polymorphisms with the risk of T2DM in Eastern China population. Methods We collected 467 cases in the Health Examination Center of our hospital from January 2011 to December 2012.Ligase detection reaction was performed to test the genotypes in 240 T2DM patients and 227 controls.Unconditioned logistic regression analysis was used to explore the association of FXR gene polymorphisms with the risk of T2DM in different genetic models, after adjusting for age, sex, smoking and drinking status. Results Compared with AA genotype, GG significantly increased the risk of T2DM (P=0.017), while GA+GG approached marginal significance in association with T2DM (P=0.049) in rs1030454.For rs10860598, GA reduced the incidence of T2DM (P=0.025) compared with AA genotype, while GA+GG had marginal significance with T2DM (P=0.049).For rs11110411, CT or CT+CC could reduce the risk of T2DM compared with TT with P value of 0.016 and 0.024 respectively.Compared with AA, GA or GA+GG in rs17030270 was negative with the risk of T2DM with P value of 0.018 and 0.032 respectively. Conclusion FXR gene polymorphisms are associated with the risk of T2DM in northern Chinese Han population and the variation of FXR gene may play a role in the pathogenesis of T2DM.
