Two haplotypes consisting of rs4646312 and rs4680 were also significantly associated with T2DM, of which C-G was a protective haplotype for T2DM (OR=0.83; 95% CI, 0.70-0.98; P=0.029), whereas T-A was a risk one (OR=1.23, 95% CI, 1.03-1.46; P=0.022).
Analyses of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) revealed, a 12.3% increased frequency of 5HT2C rs3813929 T-allele and an 11.6% increased frequency of COMT rs4680 GG-genotype in individuals with IGT or T2D (chi(2), p = 0.05 and p = 0.06, respectively).
