Association of GCKR rs780094 polymorphism with circulating lipid levels in type 2 diabetes and hyperuricemia in Uygur Chinese.

ABSTRACT: To investigate the relationship between a GCKR rs780094 polymorphism and lipid profiles in the Xinjiang Uygur population in China. 980 type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients, 1017 hyperuricemia (HUA) and 1185 healthy controls were included in this study. After genotyping of rs780094 by Sequenom Mass ARRAY system, chi-square test and logistic regression analysis were used for association analysis as well as a genotype-phenotype analysis. We found that the serum concentration of TC (P<0.001) was significantly higher and HDL-C (P<0.001) was lower in T2DM than in control participants. Subjects with HUA had a significantly higher TG (P=0.003) and lower HDL-C (P<0.001) than control participants. Additionally, under the recessive model, rs780094 was shown to be associated with the risk of HUA (P=0.015, OR=1.311), particularly in males (P=0.047, OR=1.330). Subsequent interaction analysis between rs780094 and lipid parameters showed that the TG level was positively correlated with HUA in the rs780094- AA+AG carriers (P=0.005). The TC concentrations showed to be associated with T2DM in the rs780094- AA+AG carriers (P<0.001). The association between lipid parameters and gender showed that significantly higher TG levels (P<0.001) and lower HDL-C levels (P<0.001) were observed in female HUA. Higher LDL-C levels were found in male HUA (P=0.015). Moreover, statistically higher TC levels and lower HDL-C levels were found both in male and female T2DM cases (TC: male: P<0.001, female: P=0.014. HDL-C: male: P<0.001, female: P<0.001.).To conclude, our results demonstrated that different genotypes of rs780094 had different effects on blood lipids in HUA and T2DM patients in a Uygur population. Gender was also one of the factors influencing blood lipid levels.
