Furthermore, several genetic variants in the VDR gene including the VDR FokI (rs10735810) polymorphism have been implicated in T1D susceptibility in some Caucasian populations.
We genotyped 100 patients with T1D and 96 controls for the FokI (rs10735810), BsmI (rs1544410), ApaI (rs7975232), and TaqI (rs731236) single nucleotide polymorphisms by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis.
We studied the frequency of VDR FokI (rs10735810) and BsmI (rs154410) polymorphisms in T1DM and their relationship to beta-cell autoimmunity and residual beta-cell function.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of VDR gene variation in T1DM susceptibility by genotyping four SNPs (FokI-rs10735810, TaqI-rs731236, BsmI-rs1544410, and Tru9I-rs757343) in 160 case-parent trio samples from the population of South Croatia.
We genotyped 207 patients with type 1 diabetes and 249 controls for the FokI T>C (rs10735810), BsmI A>G (rs1544410), ApaI G>T (rs7975232), and TaqI C>T (rs731236) single nucleotide polymorphisms by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis.
