Association of genetic polymorphisms of PCSK9 with type 2 diabetes in Uygur Chinese population.


ABSTRACT: PCSK9 gene expression is associated with biological processes such as lipid metabolism, glucose metabolism, and inflammation. In the present study, our primary objective was to assess the association between the single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the PCSK9 gene and type 2 diabetes in Uygur subjects, in Xinjiang, China. We designed a case-control study including 662 patients diagnosed with T2DM and 1220 control subjects. Four single-nucleotide polymorphisms (rs11583680, rs2483205, rs2495477 and rs562556) of PCSK9 gene were genotyped using the improved multiplex ligation detection reaction technique. For rs2483205, the distribution of genotypes, dominant model (CC vs CT + TT), overdominant model (CC + TT vs CT) showed significant differences between T2DM patients and the controls (P = 0.011 and P = 0.041 respectively). For rs2495477, the distribution of genotypes, the dominant model (AA vs GA + GG) showed significant differences between T2DM patients and the controls (P = 0.024). Logistic regression analysis suggested after adjustment of other confounders, the differences remained significant between the two groups [for rs2483205 CC vs CT + TT: odds ratio (OR) = 1.321, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.078-1.617, P = 0.007; CC + TT vs CT: OR = 1.255, 95% CI 1.021-1.542, P = 0.03; for rs2495477 AA vs GA + GG: OR = 1.297, 95% CI 1.060-1.588, P = 0.012]. The present study indicated that CT + TT genotype and CT genotype of rs2483205, as well as GA + GG genotype of rs2495477 in PCSK9 gene were associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes in the Uygur population in Xinjiang.
