PG - 346-52 LID - 10.1055/s-0029-1243604 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2J2 is a regulatory enzyme in the biosynthesis of biologically active CIS-epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs). EETs have been suggested to modulate PPAR-gamma and PPAR-alpha transcription activity and play a role in stimulus-secretion coupling in pancreatic beta cells. Genetic abnormalities in the expression of CYP2J enzymes may play a role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Our objective was to investigate CYP2J2 G-50T polymorphism (rs890293) in association with insulin resistance markers and T2DM in a Chinese population. METHODS: A total of 1 747 Chinese T2DM patients and 994 non-diabetic subjects were studied. The CYP2J2 G-50T polymorphism was determined by a restriction fragment-length polymorphism polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS: Neither the CYP2J2 genotype distribution nor allele frequency differed between the control subjects and the T2DM patients. However, among diabetics, subjects with a younger age at diagnosis (AAD; <40 years) had significantly higher T variant frequency than those with an AAD>/=40 years. When diabetic patients were stratified by their AAD in 10-year intervals, the trend was significantly linear among age grades. A significant interaction between the CYP2J2 T variant and younger onset diabetic subjects with positive family diabetes history, and BMI>/=27 kg/m (2) were observed to have the highest risk of diabetes and younger onset diabetics with the T variant had higher homeostasis model assessment estimate of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and HOMA-beta values than their GG genotype counterparts. Plasma concentrations of stable EET metabolites were significantly lower in individuals with the G-50T SNP in younger onset diabetics. CONCLUSION: These data suggest that age of onset, family history, and obesity may modify the association between the CYP2J2 G-50T polymorphism and T2DM risk. CYP2J2 G-50T polymorphism may contribute to the pathogenesis of T2DM, partially by effects on insulin resistance, in patients with younger onset T2DM. CI - (c) J. A.
