Abstract
CONTEXT Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a pregnancy-complicated disease that poses a risk to maternal and infant health. However, the etiology of the disease has been not yet elucidated. OBJECTIVE To detect the genetic susceptibility and construct a nomogram model with significantly associated polymorphisms and key clinical indicators for early prediction of GDM. METHODS Eleven functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) screened by genome-wide association study were genotyped in 554 GDM cases and 641 healthy controls. Functional analysis of GDM positively associated SNPs, multivariate mendelian randomization (MVMR), and a GDM early predictive nomogram model construction were performed. RESULT rs1965211, rs3760675, and rs7814359 were significantly associated with genetic susceptibility to GDM after adjusting age and prepregnancy body mass index (pre-BMI). It seems that GDM-associated SNPs have effects on regulating target gene transcription factor binding, posttranscriptional splicing, and translation product structure. Besides, rs3760675 can be expression quantitative trait loci and increase the XAB2 mRNA expression level (P = .047). The MVMR analysis showed that the increase of clinical variables of BMI, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) had significant causal effects on GDM (BMI-ORMVMR = 1.52, HbA1c-ORMVMR = 1.32, FPG-ORMVMR = 1.78), P < .05. A nomogram model constructed with pre-BMI, FPG, HbA1c, and genotypes of rs1965211, rs3760675, and rs7814359 showed an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.824. CONCLUSION Functional polymorphisms can change women's susceptibility to GDM and the predictive nomogram model based on genetic and environmental factors can effectively distinguish individuals with different GDM risks in early stages of pregnancy.

Abstract
Genetics plays a role in the development of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), which poses serious risks to pregnant women and their children. Several studies have demonstrated a link between GDM susceptibility and rs13266634 C/T polymorphism in SLC30A8 gene and rs1111875 C/T and rs5015480 C/T, which are located near the linkage disequilibrium block containing the IDE, HHEX, and KIF11 genes. However, the results are conflicting. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the association between susceptibility to GDM and HHEX and SLC30A8 gene polymorphisms. PubMed, Web of Science, EBSCO, CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, and SCOPUS were used to search for research articles. The quality of the selected literature was evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. A meta-analysis was performed using Stata 15.1. Allelic, dominant, recessive, homozygote, and heterozygote models were used for the analysis. Nine articles with 15 studies were included. (1) Four studies about HHEX rs1111875 showed that the C allele was associated with the susceptibility to GDM; (2) three studies on HHEX rs5015480 indicated that the C allele in rs5015480 was significantly associated with GDM; (3) eight studies about SLC30A8 rs13266634 showed that the C allele was significantly associated with the susceptibility to GDM; and (4) a subgroup analysis showed that the rs5015480 polymorphism in HHEX and rs13266634 polymorphism in SLC30A8 gene were associated with GDM susceptibility in Asians. The meta-analysis provided evidence that the C allele in rs1111875 and rs5015480 in HHEX and rs13266634 in SLC30A8 can increase the risk of GDM.PROSPERO registration number CRD42022342280.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a serious and most frequent health complication during pregnancy which is associated with a significant increase in the risk of maternal and neonatal outcomes. GDM is usually the result of β-cell dysfunction along with chronic insulin resistance during pregnancy. Seshiah et al. pioneer work led to the adoption of Diabetes in Pregnancy Study Group in India criteria as the norm to diagnose GDM, especially in the community setting. In 2014, the Maternal Health Division of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, updated guidelines and stressed upon the proper use of guidelines such as using a glucometer for self-monitoring and the use of oral hypoglycaemic agents. The 2018 Government of India guidelines stress the importance of counselling about lifestyle modifications, weight control, exercise, and family planning.

Genetic Variants of HNF4A, WFS1, DUSP9, FTO, and ZFAND6 Genes Are Associated with Prediabetes Susceptibility and Inflammatory Markers in the Saudi Arabian Population. Genes (Basel) 2023; 14:genes14030536. [PMID: 36980809 PMCID: PMC10048403 DOI: 10.3390/genes14030536] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2023] [Revised: 02/19/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2023] [Indexed: 02/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Prediabetes is a reversible, intermediate stage of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Lifestyle changes that include healthy diet and exercise can substantially reduce progression to T2DM. The present study explored the association of 37 T2DM- and obesity-linked single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with prediabetes risk in a homogenous Saudi Arabian population. A total of 1129 Saudi adults [332 with prediabetes (29%) and 797 normoglycemic controls] were randomly selected and genotyped using the KASPar SNP genotyping method. Anthropometric and various serological parameters were measured following standard procedures. Heterozygous GA of HNF4A-rs4812829 (0.64; 95% CI 0.47–0.86; p < 0.01), heterozygous TC of WFS1-rs1801214 (0.60; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.44–0.80; p < 0.01), heterozygous GA of DUSP9-rs5945326 (0.60; 95% CI 0.39–0.92; p = 0.01), heterozygous GA of ZFAND6-rs11634397 (0.75; 95% CI 0.56–1.01; p = 0.05), and homozygous AA of FTO-rs11642841 (1.50; 95% CI 0.8–1.45; p = 0.03) were significantly associated with prediabetes, independent of age and body mass index (BMI). Additionally, C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in rs11634397 (AA) with a median of 5389.0 (2767.4–7412.8) were significantly higher than in the heterozygous GA genotype with a median of 1736.3 (1024.4–4452.0) (p < 0.01). In conclusion, only five of the 37 genetic variants previously linked to T2DM and obesity in the Saudi Arabian population [HNF4A-rs4812829, WFS1-rs1801214, DUSP9-rs5945326, ZFAND6-rs11634397, FTO-rs11642841] were associated with prediabetes susceptibility. Prospective studies are needed to confirm the potential clinical value of the studied genetic variants of interest.

Abstract
The association between gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) has attracted global research attention. Exploring SNPs can help us further understand the pathogenesis of GDM, predict the risk of GDM, and guide the management of GDM patients. In this review, we summarized the studies on the association between SNPs and GDM, focusing on novel SNPs published in the last 10 years. The SNPs identified to be associated with GDM included HMG20A (rs7178572), CDKAL1 (rs7756992, rs7754840, and rs7747752), ADIPOQ (rs266729 and rs17300539), MTHFR (rs1801133), IL10 (rs3021094), CDKN2B (rs1063192), and TRPM5 (rs35197079). However, the role of SNPs in the prediction, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of GDM, as a polygenic disease, needs to be further explored in multiple ethnic populations.

Predictability of HOMA-IR for Gestational Diabetes Mellitus in Early Pregnancy Based on Different First Trimester BMI Values. J Pers Med 2022; 13:jpm13010060. [PMID: 36675721 PMCID: PMC9866419 DOI: 10.3390/jpm13010060] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2022] [Revised: 12/24/2022] [Accepted: 12/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: To investigate the ability of homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) in early pregnancy for predicting gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in Chinese women with different first-trimester body mass index (FT-BMI) values. Methods: Baseline characteristics and laboratory tests were collected at the first prenatal visit (6−12 weeks of gestation). GDM was diagnosed by a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) at 24−28 weeks of gestation. Partial correlation analysis and binary logistic regression were applied to identify the association between HOMA-IR and GDM. The cutoff points for predicting GDM were estimated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Results: Of the total of 1343 women, 300 (22.34%) were diagnosed with GDM in the 24−28 weeks of gestation. Partial correlation analysis and binary logistic regression verified HOMA-IR as a significant risk factor for GDM in the normal weight subgroup (FT-BMI < 24 kg/m2) (adjusted OR 2.941 [95% CI 2.153, 4.016], P < 0.001), overweight subgroup (24.0 kg/m2 ≤ FT-BMI < 28.0 kg/m2) (adjusted OR 3.188 [95% CI 2.011, 5.055], P < 0.001), and obese subgroup (FT-BMI ≥ 28.0 kg/m2) (adjusted OR 9.415 [95% CI 1.712, 51.770], p = 0.01). The cutoff values of HOMA-IR were 1.52 (area under the curve (AUC) 0.733, 95% CI 0.701−0.765, p < 0.001) for all participants, 1.43 (AUC 0.691, 95% CI 0.651−0.730, p < 0.001) for normal weight women, 2.27 (AUC 0.760, 95% CI 0.703−0.818, p < 0.001) for overweight women, and 2.31 (AUC 0.801, 95% CI 0.696−0.907, p < 0.001) for obese women. Conclusions: Increased HOMA-IR in early pregnancy is a risk factor for GDM, and HOMA-IR can be affected by body weight. The cutoff value of HOMA-IR to predict GDM should be distinguished by different FT-BMI values.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a metabolic disorder in pregnant women leading to various complications. Consequently, factors predisposing its development are being sought. Previous studies have shown that the pathogenesis of GDM is similar to that of type 2 diabetes, and it is therefore thought that the two diseases may have a common genetic basis. The aim of this study was to examine the associations between thyroid adenoma-associated (THADA) rs7578597 T>C, succinate dehydrogenase complex assembly factor 4 (SDHAF4) rs1048886 A>G, and microtubule-actin crosslinking factor 1 (MACF1) rs2296172 A>G gene polymorphisms and the risk of GDM development as well as selected clinical parameters in women with GDM. We also examined the expression of these genes in the placenta of women with and without GDM in association with clinical parameters. This case-control study included 272 pregnant women with GDM and 348 pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance. There were no statistically significant differences in the distribution of the THADA rs7578597 T>C, SDHAF4 rs1048886 A>G, and MACF1 rs2296172 A>G gene polymorphisms between pregnant control women and women with GDM. The associations between clinical parameters such as body mass before pregnancy, body mass at birth, body mass increase during pregnancy, BMI before pregnancy, BMI at birth, BMI increase during pregnancy, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), daily insulin requirement, childbirth time, and newborn body mass and APGAR score, and the THADA rs7578597 T>C, SDHAF4 rs1048886 A>G, and MACF1 rs2296172 A>G genotypes were statistically non-significant. We only observed lower values of body mass before pregnancy and body mass at birth in women with the SDHAF4 rs1048886 AG genotype in comparison with AA genotype carriers. There was no statistically significant difference in the expression of THADA, SDHAF4, and MACF1 genes in the placenta between women with GDM and healthy women. There were also no statistically significant correlations between THADA, SDHAF4, and MACF1 gene expression in the placenta and clinical parameters. The results of our study suggest that THADA rs7578597 T>C, SDHAF4 rs1048886 A>G, and MACF1 rs2296172 A>G gene polymorphisms are not significant factors associated with GDM onset. In addition, SDHAF4 rs1048886 A>G may be associated with body mass before pregnancy and body mass at birth in pregnant women.

BMC Med 2022; 20:300. [PMID: 36042491 PMCID: PMC9429730 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-022-02476-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
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. METHODS By leveraging large-scale genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics of T2D (European-based: Ncase = 21,926, Ncontrol = 342,747; East Asian-based: Ncase = 36,614, Ncontrol = 155,150) and PAD (European-based: Ncase = 5673, Ncontrol = 359,551; East Asian-based: Ncase = 3593, Ncontrol = 208,860), we explored the genetic correlation and putative causal relationship between T2D and PAD in both Europeans and East Asians using linkage disequilibrium score regression and seven Mendelian randomization (MR) models. We also performed multi-trait analysis of GWAS and two gene-based analyses to reveal candidate variants and risk genes involved in the shared genetic basis between T2D and PAD. RESULTS We observed a strong genetic correlation (rg) between T2D and PAD in both Europeans (rg = 0.51; p-value = 9.34 × 10-15) and East Asians (rg = 0.46; p-value = 1.67 × 10-12). The MR analyses provided consistent evidence for a causal effect of T2D on PAD in both ethnicities (odds ratio [OR] = 1.05 to 1.28 for Europeans and 1.15 to 1.27 for East Asians) but not PAD on T2D. This putative causal effect was not influenced by total cholesterol, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, or smoking initiation according to multivariable MR analysis, and the genetic overlap between T2D and PAD was further explored employing an independent European sample through polygenic risk score regression. Multi-trait analysis of GWAS revealed two novel European-specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs927742 and rs1734409) associated with the shared genetic basis of T2D and PAD. Gene-based analyses consistently identified one gene ANKFY1 and gene-gene interactions (e.g., STARD10 [European-specific] to AP3S2 [East Asian-specific]; KCNJ11 [European-specific] to KCNQ1 [East Asian-specific]) associated with the trans-ethnic genetic overlap between T2D and PAD, reflecting a common genetic basis for the co-occurrence of T2D and PAD in both Europeans and East Asians. CONCLUSIONS Our study provides the first evidence for a genetically causal effect of T2D on PAD in both Europeans and East Asians. Several candidate variants and risk genes were identified as being associated with this genetic overlap. Our findings emphasize the importance of monitoring PAD status in T2D patients and suggest new genetic biomarkers for screening PAD risk among patients with T2D.

COBLL1 and IRS1 Gene Polymorphisms and Placental Expression in Women with Gestational Diabetes. Biomedicines 2022; 10:biomedicines10081933. [PMID: 36009479 PMCID: PMC9405993 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines10081933] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2022] [Revised: 06/26/2022] [Accepted: 08/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is carbohydrate intolerance in pregnant women leading to various complications. Currently, there is a search for factors predisposing to GDM. Among them are genetic polymorphisms of genes involved in insulin secretion as well as carbohydrate metabolism. Due to the similar pathogenesis of GDM to type 2 diabetes (T2DM), genetic polymorphisms associated with T2DM are considered. The aim of this study was to examine the associations between the COBLL1 rs7607980 T > C and IRS1 rs2943641 T > C gene polymorphisms and the risk of GDM as well as selected clinical parameters in women with GDM. Additionally, we examined the expression of these genes in the placenta of women with and without GDM in correlation with selected clinical parameters. This study included 328 pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and 251 pregnant women with GDM diagnosed on the basis of a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) at 24−28 weeks gestation. There were no statistically significant differences in the distribution of IRS1 rs2943641 gene polymorphisms between women with GDM and pregnant women with NGT. In the GDM group, we observed a decreased frequency of COBLL1 rs7607980 CC homozygous women (CC vs. TC+TT, p = 0.048); however, there was no statistically significant difference in the frequency of alleles between women with GDM and the control group. There were no statistically significant associations between COBLL1 rs7607980 gene polymorphism and clinical parameters in women with GDM. In GDM women with the IRS1 rs2943641 TT genotype, fasting glucose levels were significantly higher than in women with CC and TC genotypes. There was no statistically significant difference in the expression of COBLL1 and IRS1 genes in the placenta between women with GDM and healthy women. There were no statistically significant correlations between COBLL1 gene expression in the placenta and clinical parameters. The expression of IRS1 correlated significantly with an increase in BMI during pregnancy. The results of this study suggest that COBLL1 rs7607980 and IRS1 rs2943641 gene polymorphisms are not significant risk factors for GDM in our population. The IRS1 TT genotype may be associated with higher fasting glucose levels in women with GDM. Expression of the IRS1 gene in the placenta positively correlates with an increase in BMI during pregnancy in women with GDM.

Altered levels of neurobiological biomarkers at the interface of depression and gestational diabetes mellitus in Asian Indian women. Neuropeptides 2022; 93:102245. [PMID: 35461022 DOI: 10.1016/j.npep.2022.102245] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2022] [Revised: 03/17/2022] [Accepted: 04/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
AIM Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) might predispose the mothers to depression. Studies have reported the role of biomarkers either in GDM or depression, but very few have examined them in GDM with depression. The present study profiled the circulating levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), Beta Endorphin (BE) and nesfatin-1 in women with GDM (with and without depression). METHODS 160 pregnant women at 24-28 weeks of pregnancy (NGT/GDM with & without depression, n = 40 each) were randomly selected from the ongoing STRiDE (STratification of Risk of Diabetes in Early pregnancy) study. Depression score was derived using PHQ-9 questionnaire and ELISA was used to quantify the biomarkers. RESULTS Circulatory levels of BDNF, BE and nesfatin-1 were lower in GDM women with or without depression compared to NGT without depression, however, nesfatin-1 levels were higher in NGT with depression. Notably, GDM with depression had the lowest levels of BDNF and BE. Both BDNF and BE levels were negatively correlated with depression, 1 h and 2 h plasma glucose. Regression analysis confirmed that each standard deviation decreases in BDNF and BE were independently associated with higher odds of GDM with or without depression even after adjusting for potential confounders. CONCLUSION Our study has identified altered levels of a panel of neurobiological biomarkers (BDNF/BE/nesfatin-1) in those with combined GDM and depression. BDNF/BE could be potential biomarkers to assess the higher risk of coexisting depression and GDM.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a common disorder that occurs in pregnant women, leading to many maternal and neonatal complications. The pathogenesis of GDM is complex and includes risk factors, such as: age, obesity, and family history of diabetes. Studies have shown that genetic factors also play a role in the pathogenesis of GDM. The present study investigated whether polymorphisms in the PPARG (rs1801282), TMEM163 (rs6723108 and rs998451), UBE2E2 (rs6780569), and WFS1 (rs4689388) genes are risk factors for the development of GDM and whether they affect selected clinical parameters in women with GDM. This study included 204 pregnant women with GDM and 207 pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance (NGT). The diagnosis of GDM was based on a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) at 24–28 weeks gestation, according to the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups (IADPSG) criteria. There were no statistically significant differences in the distribution of polymorphisms studied between women with GDM and pregnant women with normal carbohydrate tolerance, which suggests that these polymorphisms are not risk factors for GDM. We also examined the associations between studied gene polymorphisms and clinical parameters: fasting glucose, daily insulin requirement, body mass before pregnancy, body mass at birth, body mass increase during pregnancy, BMI before pregnancy, BMI at birth, BMI increase during pregnancy, new-born body mass, and APGAR score in women with GDM. We observed lower BMI values before pregnancy and at birth in women with PPARG rs17036160 TT genotype. The results of this study suggest that the PPARG (rs1801282), TMEM163 (rs6723108 and rs998451), UBE2E2 (rs6780569), and WFS1 (rs4689388) gene polymorphisms are not significant risk factors for GDM development in the Polish population and do not affect the clinical parameters in women with GDM; only rs1801282 of the PPARG gene may influence BMI values in women with GDM.

Abstract
AIMS Genome-wide association studies have shown an increased risk of type-2-diabetes (T2DM) in patients who carry single nucleotide polymorphisms in several genes. We investigated whether the same gene loci confer a risk for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in women from Hawaii, and in particular, Pacific Islander and Filipino populations. METHODS Blood was collected from 291 women with GDM and 734 matched non-diabetic controls (Pacific Islanders: 71 GDM, 197 non-diabetic controls; Filipinos: 162 GDM, 395 controls; Japanese: 58 GDM, 142 controls). Maternal DNA was used to genotype and show allele frequencies of 25 different SNPs mapped to 18 different loci. RESULTS After adjusting for age, BMI, parity and gravidity by multivariable logistic regression, several SNPs showed significant associations with GDM and were ethnicity specific. In particular, SNPs rs1113132 (EXT2), rs1111875 (HHEX), rs2237892 (KCNQ1), rs2237895 (KCNQ1), rs10830963 (MTNR1B) and rs13266634 (SLC30A8) showed significant associations with GDM in Filipinos. For Japanese, SNPs rs4402960 (IGFBP2) and rs2237892 (KCNQ1) were significantly associated with GDM. For Pacific Islanders, SNPs rs10830963 (MTNR1B) and rs13266634 (SLC30A8) showed significant associations with GDM. Individually, none of the SNPs showed a consistent association with GDM across all three investigated ethnicities. CONCLUSION Several SNPs associated with T2DM are found to confer increased risk for GDM in a multiethnic cohort in Hawaii.

Abstract
Adaptin proteins (APs) play a crucial role in intracellular cell trafficking. The 'classical' role of APs is carried out by AP1‒3, which bind to clathrin, cargo, and accessory proteins. Accordingly, AP1-3 are crucial for both vesicle formation and sorting. All APs consist of four subunits that are indispensable for their functions. In fact, based on studies using cells, model organism knockdown/knock-out, and human variants, each subunit plays crucial roles and contributes to the specificity of each AP. These studies also revealed that the sorting and intracellular trafficking function of AP can exert varying effects on pathology by controlling features such as cell development, signal transduction related to the apoptosis and proliferation pathways in cancer cells, organelle integrity, receptor presentation, and viral infection. Although the roles and functions of AP1‒3 are relatively well studied, the functions of the less abundant and more recently identified APs, AP4 and AP5, are still to be investigated. Further studies on these APs may enable a better understanding and targeting of specific diseases.APs known or suggested locations and functions.

The metabesity factor HMG20A potentiates astrocyte survival and reactive astrogliosis preserving neuronal integrity. Theranostics 2021; 11:6983-7004. [PMID: 34093866 PMCID: PMC8171100 DOI: 10.7150/thno.57237] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2020] [Accepted: 04/30/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Rationale: We recently demonstrated that the 'Metabesity' factor HMG20A regulates islet beta-cell functional maturity and adaptation to physiological stress such as pregnancy and pre-diabetes. HMG20A also dictates central nervous system (CNS) development via inhibition of the LSD1-CoREST complex but its expression pattern and function in adult brain remains unknown. Herein we sought to determine whether HMG20A is expressed in the adult CNS, specifically in hypothalamic astrocytes that are key in glucose homeostasis and whether similar to islets, HMG20A potentiates astrocyte function in response to environmental cues. Methods: HMG20A expression profile was assessed by quantitative PCR (QT-PCR), Western blotting and/or immunofluorescence in: 1) the hypothalamus of mice exposed or not to either a high-fat diet or a high-fat high-sucrose regimen, 2) human blood leukocytes and adipose tissue obtained from healthy or diabetic individuals and 3) primary mouse hypothalamic astrocytes exposed to either high glucose or palmitate. RNA-seq and cell metabolic parameters were performed on astrocytes treated or not with a siHMG20A. Astrocyte-mediated neuronal survival was evaluated using conditioned media from siHMG20A-treated astrocytes. The impact of ORY1001, an inhibitor of the LSD1-CoREST complex, on HMG20A expression, reactive astrogliosis and glucose metabolism was evaluated in vitro and in vivo in high-fat high-sucrose fed mice. Results: We show that Hmg20a is predominantly expressed in hypothalamic astrocytes, the main nutrient-sensing cell type of the brain. HMG20A expression was upregulated in diet-induced obesity and glucose intolerant mice, correlating with increased transcript levels of Gfap and Il1b indicative of inflammation and reactive astrogliosis. Hmg20a transcript levels were also increased in adipose tissue of obese non-diabetic individuals as compared to obese diabetic patients. HMG20A silencing in astrocytes resulted in repression of inflammatory, cholesterol biogenesis and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition pathways which are hallmarks of reactive astrogliosis. Accordingly, HMG20A depleted astrocytes exhibited reduced mitochondrial bioenergetics and increased susceptibility to apoptosis. Neuron viability was also hindered in HMG20A-depleted astrocyte-derived conditioned media. ORY1001 treatment rescued expression of reactive astrogliosis-linked genes in HMG20A ablated astrocytes while enhancing cell surface area, GFAP intensity and STAT3 expression in healthy astrocytes, mimicking the effect of HMG20A. Furthermore, ORY1001 treatment protected against obesity-associated glucose intolerance in mice correlating with a regression of hypothalamic HMG20A expression, indicative of reactive astrogliosis attenuation with improved health status. Conclusion: HMG20A coordinates the astrocyte polarization state. Under physiological pressure such as obesity and insulin resistance that induces low grade inflammation, HMG20A expression is increased to induce reactive astrogliosis in an attempt to preserve the neuronal network and re-establish glucose homeostasis. Nonetheless, a chronic metabesity state or functional mutations will result in lower levels of HMG20A, failure to promote reactive astrogliosis and increase susceptibility of neurons to stress-induced apoptosis. Such effects could be reversed by ORY1001 treatment both in vitro and in vivo, paving the way for a new therapeutic approach for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes Mellitus (GDM) affects 1 in 7 births and is associated with numerous adverse health outcomes for both mother and child. GDM is suspected to share a large common genetic background with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The aim of our study was to characterize different GDM polygenic risk scores (PRSs) and test their association with GDM using data from the South Asian Birth Cohort (START). PRSs were derived for 832 South Asian women from START using the pruning and thresholding (P + T), LDpred, and GraBLD methods. Weights were derived from a multi-ethnic and a white Caucasian study of the DIAGRAM consortium. GDM status was defined using South Asian-specific glucose values in response to an oral glucose tolerance test. Association with GDM was tested using logistic regression. Results were replicated in South Asian women from the UK Biobank (UKB) study. The top ranking P + T, LDpred and GraBLD PRSs were all based on DIAGRAM's multi-ethnic study. The best PRS was highly associated with GDM in START (AUC = 0.62, OR = 1.60 [95% CI = 1.44-1.69]), and in South Asian women from UKB (AUC = 0.65, OR = 1.69 [95% CI = 1.28-2.24]). Our results highlight the importance of combining genome-wide genotypes and summary statistics from large multi-ethnic studies to optimize PRSs in South Asians.

Abstract
The Ras-responsive element binding protein 1(RREB1) is a member of zinc finger transcription factors, which is widely involved in biological processes including cell proliferation, transcriptional regulation and DNA damage repair. New findings reveal RREB1 functions as both transcriptional repressors and transcriptional activators for transcriptional regulation of target genes. The activation of RREB1 is regulated by MAPK pathway. We have summarized the target genes of RREB1 and discussed RREB1 roles in the cancer development. In addition, increasing evidences suggest that RREB1 is a potential risk gene for type 2 diabetes and obesity. We also review the current clinical application of RREB1 as a biomarker for melanoma detection. In conclusion, RREB1 is a promising diagnostic biomarker or new drug target for cancers and metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is the most common metabolic complication of pregnancy, with a prevalence that has increased significantly in the last decade, coming to affect 12-18% of all pregnancies. GDM is believed to be the result of a combination of genetic, epigenetic and environmental factors. Following the identification of susceptibility genes for type 2 diabetes by means of genome-wide association studies, an association has also been demonstrated between some type 2 diabetes susceptibility genes and GDM, suggesting a partial similarity of the genetic architecture behind the two forms of diabetes. More recent genome-wide association studies, focusing on maternal metabolism during pregnancy, have demonstrated an overlap in the genes associated with metabolic traits in gravid and non-gravid populations, as well as in genes apparently unique to pregnancy. Epigenetic changes-such as DNA methylation, histone modifications and microRNA gene silencing-have also been identified in GDM patients. Metabolomics has been used to profile the metabolic state of women during pregnancy, based on the measurement of numerous low-molecular-weight metabolites. Measuring amino acids and conventional metabolites has revealed changes in pregnant women with a higher insulin resistance and high blood glucose levels that resemble the changes seen in non-gravid, insulin-resistant populations. This would suggest similarities in the metabolic profiles typical of insulin resistance and hyperglycemia whether individuals are pregnant or not. Future studies combining data obtained using multiple technologies will enable an integrated systems biology approach to maternal metabolism during a pregnancy complicated by GDM. This review highlights the recent knowledge on the impact of genetics and epigenetics in the pathophysiology of GDM and the maternal and fetal complications associated with this pathology condition.

Molecular Modelling of Islet β-Cell Adaptation to Inflammation in Pregnancy and Gestational Diabetes Mellitus. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20246171.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), a metabolic disease that develops with the increase in insulin resistance during late pregnancy, is currently one of the most common complications affecting pregnancy. The polygenic nature of GDM, together with the interplay between different genetic variants with nutritional and environmental factors has hindered the full understanding of the etiology of this disease. However, an important genetic overlap has been found with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and, as in the case of T2DM, most of the identified loci are associated with β-cell function. Early detection of GDM and adequate interventions to control the maternal glycemia are necessary to avoid the adverse outcomes for both the mother and the offspring. The in utero exposure to the diabetic milieu predispose these children for future diseases, among them T2DM, originating a vicious circle implicated in the increased prevalence of both GDM and T2DM. The involvement of inflammatory processes in the development of GDM highlights the importance of pancreatic β-cell factors able to favor the adaptation processes required during gestation, concomitantly with the protection of the islets from an inflammatory milieu. In this regard, two members of the Pax family of transcription factors, PAX4 and PAX8, together with the chromatin remodeler factor HMG20A, have gained great relevance due to their involvement in β-cell mass adaptation together with their anti-inflammatory properties. Mutations in these factors have been associated with GDM, highlighting these as novel candidates for genetic screening analysis in the identification of women at risk of developing GDM.

[PMID: 31763025 PMCID: PMC6848811 DOI: 10.1002/fsn3.1235] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2019] [Revised: 08/18/2019] [Accepted: 08/23/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Interest in the high folate status of pregnant women has increased due to its role in the prevention of neural tube defects (NTDs). The effect of increased red blood cell (RBC) folate status during the second trimester of pregnancy on gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) remains unclear. We measured RBC folate concentrations by competitive protein-binding assay and obtained clinical information from electronic medical records. Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the associations of RBC folate concentrations with risks of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). We further assessed the potential nonlinear relations between continuous log-transformed RBC folate concentrations and GDM risk by using the restricted cubic splines. We observed high RBC folate concentrations in GDM patients compared to control group [median (interquartile range, IQR), GDM vs. controls: 1,554.03 (1,240.54-1,949.99) vs. 1,478.83 (1,124.60-1,865.71) nmol/L, p = .001]. Notably, high folate concentrations were significantly associated with an increased risk of GDM [RR per 1-SD increase: 1.16 (1.03, 1.30), p = .012] after adjustment for maternal age, parity, and body mass index (BMI) at enrollment. In the restricted cubic spline model, a test of the null hypothesis of the linear relationship was rejected (p = .001). Our study firstly showed that maternal RBC folate concentrations during the second trimester of pregnancy increase the risk of GDM in a Chinese population. Further randomized clinical trials (RCTs) are warranted to confirm the adverse effect.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a transient form of diabetes characterized by impaired insulin secretion and action during pregnancy. Population-based differences in prevalence exist which could be explained by phenotypic and genetic differences. The aim of this study was to examine these differences in pregnant women from Punjab, India and Scandinavia. METHODS Eighty-five GDM/T2D loci in European and/or Indian populations from previous studies were assessed for association with GDM based on Swedish GDM criteria in 4018 Punjabi Indian and 507 Swedish pregnant women. Selected loci were replicated in Scandinavian cohorts, Radiel (N = 398, Finnish) and STORK/STORK-G (N = 780, Norwegian). RESULTS Punjabi Indian women had higher GDM prevalence, lower insulin secretion and better insulin sensitivity than Swedish women. There were significant frequency differences of GDM/T2D risk alleles between both populations. rs7178572 at HMG20A, previously associated with GDM in South Indian and European women, was replicated in North Indian women. The T2D risk SNP rs11605924 in the CRY2 gene was associated with increased GDM risk in Scandinavian but decreased GDM risk in Punjabi Indian women. No other overlap was seen between GDM loci in both populations. CONCLUSIONS Gestational diabetes mellitus is more common in Indian than Swedish women, which partially can be attributed to differences in insulin secretion and action. There was marked heterogeneity in the GDM phenotypes between the populations which could only partially be explained by genetic differences.

Abstract
SETTING Pune, India. OBJECTIVES To estimate the prevalence and risk factors of pre-diabetes mellitus (DM) and DM, and its associations with the clinical presentation of tuberculosis (TB). DESIGN Screening for DM was conducted among adults (age 18 years) with confirmed TB between December 2013 and January 2017. We used multinomial regression to evaluate the risk factors for pre-DM (glycated hemoglobin [HbA1c] 5.7-6.5% or fasting glucose 100-125 mg/dl) and DM (HbA1c 6.5% or fasting glucose 126 mg/dl or random blood glucose > 200 mg/dl or self-reported DM history/treatment) and the association of dysglycemia with the severity of TB disease. RESULTS Among 1793 participants screened, 890 (50%) had microbiologically confirmed TB. Of these, 33% had pre-DM and 18% had DM; 41% were newly diagnosed. The median HbA1c level among newly diagnosed DM was 7.0% vs. 10.3% among known DM (P < 0.001). DM (adjusted OR [aOR] 4.94, 95%CI 2.33-10.48) and each per cent increase in HbA1c (aOR 1.42, 95%CI 1.01-2.01) was associated with >1+ smear grade or 9 days to TB detection. CONCLUSION Over half of newly diagnosed TB patients had DM or pre-DM. DM and increasing dysglycemia was associated with higher bacterial burden at TB diagnosis, potentially indicating a higher risk of TB transmission to close contacts.

Abstract
Background Gestational diabetes (GDM) is a more common problem in India than in many other parts of the world but it is not known whether this is due to unique environmental factors or a unique genetic background. To address this question we examined whether the same genetic variants associated with GDM and Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) in Caucasians also were associated with GDM in North Indian women. Methods Five thousand one hundred pregnant women of gestational age 24–28 weeks from Punjab were studied by a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). GDM was diagnosed by both WHO1999 and 2013 criteria. 79 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) previously associated with T2D and glycemic traits (12 of them also with GDM) and 6 SNPs from previous T2D associations based on Indian population (some also with European) were genotyped on a Sequenom platform or using Taqman assays in DNA from 4018 women. Results In support of previous findings in Caucasian GDM, SNPs at KCJN11 and GRB14 loci were nominally associated with GDM1999 risk in Indian women (both p = 0.02). Notably, T2D risk alleles of the variant rs1552224 near CENTD2, rs11708067 in ADCY5 and rs11605924 in CRY2 genes associated with protection from GDM regardless of criteria applied (p < 0.025). SNPs rs7607980 near COBLL1 (p = 0.0001), rs13389219 near GRB14 (p = 0.026) and rs10423928 in the GIPR gene (p = 0.012) as well as the genetic risk score (GRS) for these previously shown insulin resistance loci here associated with insulin resistance defined by HOMA2-IR and showed a trend towards GDM. GRS comprised of 3 insulin secretion loci here associated with insulin secretion but not GDM. Conclusions GDM in women from Punjab in Northern India shows a genetic component, seemingly driven by insulin resistance and secretion and partly shared with GDM in other parts of the world. Most previous T2D loci discovered in European studies did not associate with GDM in North India, indicative of different genetic etiology or alternately, differences in the linkage disequilibrium (LD) structure between populations in which the associated SNPs were identified and Northern Indian women. Interestingly some T2D risk variants were in fact indicative of being protective for GDM in these Indian women.
