This study observed that the SNPs rs3792267 in CAPN10, rs1501299 in APM1, and rs3760776 in FUT6 might serve as potential susceptible biomarkers for T2DM in Uyghurs.
The aim was to investigate the association between the CAPN10 gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) -44 (rs2975760), -43 (rs3792267), -19 (rs3842570), and -63 (rs5030952) and type 2 diabetes mellitus in an Asian Indian population in Southern India.
We examined the association of CAPN10 UCSNP-43 (rs3792267), UCSNP-19 (rs3842570), and UCSNP-63 (rs5030952) SNPs with T2D in 917 Tunisian T2D patients and 748 non-diabetic controls.CAPN10 genotyping was done by PCR-RFLP.
CAPN10 (rs3792267) was marginally associated with T2D with OR=1.5 (p=0.08) when considering the model GG vs. AG/AA with risk allele G. ENPP1 (rs1044498) was not associated with T2D.
Two CAPN10 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), the SNP43 (rs3792267) and the SNP44 (rs2975760), have been associated with T2D in some, but not all studies conducted in a wide range of ethnicities.
