CDKAL1 and HHEX are associated with type 2 diabetes-related traits among Yup'ik people.
BackgroundGenome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D), mainly among individuals of European ancestry. In the present study, we examined the frequency of these SNPs and their association with T2D-related traits in...

In the present study, we examined the frequency of these SNPs and their association with T2D-related traits in an Alaska Native study population with a historically low prevalence of T2D. We also investigated whether dietary characteristics that may protect against T2D, such as n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) intake, modify these associations.MethodsIn 1144 Yup'ik people, we examined 17 SNPs repeatedly identified in GWAS for individual and cumulative associations with T2D-related traits.

The rs5015480 SNP near HHEX is significantly associated (in opposite direction to that in Europeans) with a combined fasting glucose (FG) and HbA1c measure (P = 0.00046) and with homeostatic model assessment of β-cell function (HOMA-B; P = 0.0014). The GRS is significantly associated with FG and combined FG and HbA1c only when the HHEX SNP is dropped from the GRS. Associations are not modified by BMI or n-3 PUFA intake.ConclusionOur results highlight the potential importance of CDKAL1 and HHEX in glucose homeostasis in this Alaska Native population with a low prevalence of T2D, and suggest that these loci should be examined in greater detail in this population.
