Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a polygenic metabolic disease described by hyperglycemia, which is caused by insulin resistance or reduced insulin secretion. The interaction between various genetic variants and environmental factors triggers T2DM. The aim of this study was to find risk associated with genetic variants rs5210 and rs2237895 of KCNJ11 and KCNQ1 genes, respectively, in the development of T2DM in the Indian population. A total number of 300 cases of T2DM and 100 control samples were studied to find the polymorphism in KCNJ11 and KCNQ1 through PCR-RFLP. The genotype and allele frequencies in T2DM cases were significantly different compared to the control population. KCNJ11 rs5210 and KCNQ1 rs2237895 variants were found to be significantly associated with risk of T2DM in dominant (KCNJ11: OR, 2.07; 95% CI, 1.30-3.27; - 0.001; KCNQ1: OR, 2.33; 95% CI, 1.46-3.70; - 0.0003) and codominant models (KCNJ11: OR, 1.76; 95% CI, 1.09-2.84; - 0.020; KCNQ1: OR, 1.85; 95% CI, 1.16-2.95; - 0.009). We also compared clinicopathological characteristics between cases and control and observed a significant difference in all the parameters except HDL, gender, and family history. In this study, clinicopathological data with a carrier of a variant allele of both KCNJ11 and KCNQ1 genes were also analysed, and a significant association was found between the carrier of a variant allele with gender and PPG in KCNJ11 and with triglyceride in KCNQ1. We confirm the significant association of KCNJ11 (rs5210) and KCNQ1 (rs2237895) gene polymorphism with T2DM, indicating the role of these variants in developing risk for T2DM in Indian population.

Article Synopsis
  • Hyperinsulinemic Hypoglycemia (HH) is a rare condition in newborns characterized by low blood glucose levels, posing serious risks particularly to brain health without proper treatment.
  • It can be caused by mutations in 16 genes related to glucose metabolism and insulin release, which can affect pancreatic beta cells either diffusely or locally.
  • The review focuses on genetic variations, diagnosis, and treatment options for Hyperinsulinemic Hypoglycemia.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a complex chronic disease characterized by decreased insulin secretion and the development of insulin resistance. Previous genome-wide association studies demonstrated that single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) present in genes coding for ion channels involved in insulin secretion increase the risk of developing this disease. We determined the association of 16 SNPs found in , , , and genes and the increased probability of developing T2DM.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to investigate the relevance of European genetic risk variants for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) in the Pakistani Pashtun population, as prior research mainly focused on Europeans.
  • Researchers enrolled 100 T2DM patients and 100 healthy volunteers from the Pashtun ethnicity, genotyping them for 8 specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to assess their association with T2DM.
  • Results showed that 5 out of the 8 SNPs significantly correlated with T2DM risk in the Pashtun cohort, suggesting that certain European-identified genetic variants also contribute to T2DM susceptibility in this population.

Background: Diabetes (hyperglycemia) is defined as a multifactorial metabolic disorder in which insulin resistance and defects in pancreatic β-cell dysfunction are two major pathophysiologic abnormalities that underpin towards gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). , , and genes are connected to the mechanism of β-cell dysfunction. The purpose of this study was to investigate the genes associated with β-cell dysfunction and their genetic roles in the rs7903146, rs2237892, and rs5219 variants in Saudi women diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus and GDM.

Background: Observational studies have revealed that type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with an increased risk of peripheral artery disease (PAD). However, whether the two diseases share a genetic basis and whether the relationship is causal remain unclear. It is also unclear as to whether these relationships differ between ethnic groups.
