Abstract
Growing number of research studies have shown that an anti-ageing gene Klotho (KL) is closely associated with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). In this study, the association is genetically analyzed with single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of KL found in T2DM case of an Asian cohort. KL SNP information was obtained from a big database of the Korean Association Resource (KARE) from which 20 KL SNPs were available. Statistical analyses were conducted based on the 3 genetic models, such as additive, dominant, and recessive. Of the 20 KL SNPs, 12 SNPs were found to be significantly associated with T2DM in both of additive and dominant models. Odds ratios of the KL SNPs indicate increased susceptibility to T2DM in additive and dominant models. Significant association of KL with T2DM was further analyzed using imputed KL SNPs from HapMap reference data of the Eastern population. The statistically significant KL SNPs including the imputed SNPs distributed evenly over the KL gene area. The results in this study suggest klotho is a major player in the development of T2DM and the KL SNPs found in the case could be a risk marker of T2DM in the cohort.
期刊介绍:
The primary mission of the journal is to promote improvement in the health and well-being of community through the development and practice of clinical biochemistry and dissemination of knowledge and recent advances in this discipline among professionals, diagnostics industry, government and non-government organizations. Indian Journal of Clinical Biochemistry (IJCB) publishes peer reviewed articles that contribute to the existing knowledge in all fields of Clinical biochemistry, either experimental or theoretical, particularly deal with the applications of biochemistry, molecular biology, genetics, biotechnology, and immunology to the diagnosis, treatment, monitoring and prevention of human diseases. The articles published also include those covering the analytical and molecular diagnostic techniques, instrumentation, data processing, quality assurance and accreditation aspects of the clinical investigations in which chemistry has played a major role, or laboratory animal studies with biochemical and clinical relevance.
