Abstract
BACKGROUND More than 250 loci have been identified by genome-wide scans for type 2 diabetes in different populations. South Asians have a very different manifestation of the diseases and hence role of these loci need to be investigated among Indians with huge burden of cardio-metabolic disorders. Thus the present study aims to validate the recently identified GWAS loci in an endogamous caste population in North India. METHODS 219 T2D cases and 184 controls were recruited from hospitals and genotyped for 15 GWAS loci of T2D. Regression models adjusted for covariates were run to examine the association for T2D and fasting glucose levels. RESULTS We validated three variants for T2D namely, rs11634397 at ZFAND6 (OR = 3.05, 95%CI = 1.02-9.19, p = 0.047) and rs8042680 at PRC1 (OR = 3.67, 95%CI = 1.13-11.93, p = 0.031) showing higher risk and rs6813195 at TMEM154 (OR = 0.28, 95%CI = 0.09-0.90, p = 0.033) showing protective effect. The combined risk of 9 directionally consistent variants was also found to be significantly associated with T2D (OR = 1.91, 95%CI = 1.18-3.08, p = 0.008). One variant rs10842994 at KLHDC5 was validated for 9.15mg/dl decreased fasting glucose levels (SE = -17.25-1.05, p = 0.027). CONCLUSION We confirm the role of ZFAND6, PRC1 and TMEM154 in the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes among Indians. More efforts are needed with larger sample sizes to validate the diabetes GWAS loci in South Asian populations for wider applicability.

Abstract
Background Non-communicable diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases and diabetes contribute to the majority of deaths in India. Public health programmes on non-communicable diseases (NCD) prevention primarily target the behavioural risk factors of the population. Hereditary is known as a risk factor for most NCDs, specifically, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and hence, understanding of the genetic markers of T2DM may facilitate prevention, early case detection and management. Main body We reviewed the studies that explored marker-trait association with type 2 diabetes mellitus globally, with emphasis on India. Globally, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs7903146 of Transcription Factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2) gene was common, though there were alleles that were unique to specific populations. Within India, the state-wise data were also taken to foresee the distribution of risk/susceptible alleles. The findings from India showcased the common and unique alleles for each region. Conclusion Exploring the known and unknown genetic determinants might assist in risk prediction before the onset of behavioural risk factors and deploy prevention measures. Most studies were conducted in non-representative groups with inherent limitations such as smaller sample size or looking into only specific marker-trait associations. Genome-wide association studies using data from extensive prospective studies are required in highly prevalent regions worldwide. Further research is required to understand the singular effect and the interaction of genes in predicting diabetes mellitus and other comorbidities.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes is a chronic disease due to insulin resistance resulting in hyperglycemia. The prevalence of type 2 diabetes is increasing worldwide in the pediatric population. In the pediatric population, type 2 diabetes typically develops around adolescence; however, patients with a younger age of onset are now being reported. Earlier onset of type 2 diabetes is associated with a more aggressive course of disease and earlier comorbidities, although data on this is limited. We report a child from Qatar with type 2 diabetes that was diagnosed at 7 years of age, along obesity with a BMI of 26.8 kg/m2. Elevated liver enzymes, c-peptide, and insulin levels were observed along with fatty liver on an ultrasound. The child had severe acanthosis nigricans with increased appetite. There was a positive family history for type 2 diabetes. Testing for type 1 diabetes autoantibodies, monogenic obesity, and monogenic diabetes screening was negative. This is the second youngest child reported to have type 2 diabetes. Accurate diagnosis, early reporting, and long-term follow-up of such cases is necessary to bring more attention to the subgroup of type 2 diabetes in very young patients.

A Genetic Risk Score Improves the Prediction of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Mexican Youths but Has Lower Predictive Utility Compared With Non-Genetic Factors.

[PMID: 33776940 PMCID: PMC7994893 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2021.647864] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2020] [Accepted: 02/18/2021] [Indexed: 01/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a multifactorial disease caused by a complex interplay between environmental risk factors and genetic predisposition. To date, a total of 10 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) have been associated with pediatric-onset T2D in Mexicans, with a small individual effect size. A genetic risk score (GRS) that combines these SNPs could serve as a predictor of the risk for pediatric-onset T2D. Objective To assess the clinical utility of a GRS that combines 10 SNPs to improve risk prediction of pediatric-onset T2D in Mexicans. Methods This case-control study included 97 individuals with pediatric-onset T2D and 84 controls below 18 years old without T2D. Information regarding family history of T2D, demographics, perinatal risk factors, anthropometric measurements, biochemical variables, lifestyle, and fitness scores were then obtained. Moreover, 10 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) previously associated with pediatric-onset T2D in Mexicans were genotyped. The GRS was calculated by summing the 10 risk alleles. Pediatric-onset T2D risk variance was assessed using multivariable logistic regression models and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results The body mass index Z-score (Z-BMI) [odds ratio (OR) = 1.7; p = 0.009] and maternal history of T2D (OR = 7.1; p < 0.001) were found to be independently associated with pediatric-onset T2D. No association with other clinical risk factors was observed. The GRS also showed a significant association with pediatric-onset T2D (OR = 1.3 per risk allele; p = 0.006). The GRS, clinical risk factors, and GRS plus clinical risk factors had an AUC of 0.66 (95% CI 0.56-0.75), 0.72 (95% CI 0.62-0.81), and 0.78 (95% CI 0.70-0.87), respectively (p < 0.01). Conclusion The GRS based on 10 SNPs was associated with pediatric-onset T2D in Mexicans and improved its prediction with modest significance. However, clinical factors, such the Z-BMI and family history of T2D, continue to have the highest predictive utility in this population.

Abstract
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified multiple type 2 diabetes (T2D) loci, mostly among populations of European descent. There is a high prevalence of T2D among Pakistanis. Both genetic and environmental factors may be responsible for this high prevalence. In order to understand the shared genetic basis of T2D among Pakistanis and Europeans, we examined 77 genome-wide significant variants previously implicated among European populations. We genotyped 77 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) by iPLEX® Gold or TaqMan® assays in a case-control sample of 1,683 individuals. Association analysis was performed using logistic regression. A total of 16 SNPs (TCF7L2/rs7903146, GLIS3/rs7041847, CHCHD9/rs13292136, PLEKHA1/rs2292626, FTO/rs9936385, CDKAL1/rs7756992, KCNJ11/rs5215, LOC105372155/rs12970134, KCNQ1/rs163182, CTRB1/rs7202877, ST6GAL1/rs16861329, ADAMTS9-AS2/rs6795735, LOC105370275/rs1359790, C5orf67/rs459193, ZBED3-AS1/rs6878122 and UBE2E2/rs7612463) showed statistically significant associations after controlling for the false discovery rate. While KCNQ1/rs163182 and ZBED3-AS1/rs6878122 showed opposite allelic effects, the remaining significant SNPs had the same allelic effects as reported previously. Our data indicate that a selected number of T2D loci previously identified among populations of European descent also affect the risk of T2D in the Pakistani population.

Abstract
Abstract
Prediction of disease risk is an essential part of preventative medicine, often guiding clinical management. Risk prediction typically includes risk factors such as age, sex, family history of disease and lifestyle (e.g. smoking status); however, in recent years, there has been increasing interest to include genomic information into risk models. Polygenic risk scores (PRS) aggregate the effects of many genetic variants across the human genome into a single score and have recently been shown to have predictive value for multiple common diseases. In this review, we summarize the potential use cases for seven common diseases (breast cancer, prostate cancer, coronary artery disease, obesity, type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer’s disease) where PRS has or could have clinical utility. PRS analysis for these diseases frequently revolved around (i) risk prediction performance of a PRS alone and in combination with other non-genetic risk factors, (ii) estimation of lifetime risk trajectories, (iii) the independent information of PRS and family history of disease or monogenic mutations and (iv) estimation of the value of adding a PRS to specific clinical risk prediction scenarios. We summarize open questions regarding PRS usability, ancestry bias and transferability, emphasizing the need for the next wave of studies to focus on the implementation and health-economic value of PRS testing. In conclusion, it is becoming clear that PRS have value in disease risk prediction and there are multiple areas where this may have clinical utility.
