Perilipins are proteins that coat lipid globules in adipocytes, which are steroid-generating cells that play a central role in lipid storage and breakdown. The FTO gene is associated with type-2 diabetes (T2D) and increased fat mass. In this work the association of and FTO gene polymorphisms in T2D was investigated.
One hundred eighty-three Iranian men and women with T2D, and 174 healthy controls with no known metabolic diseases, participated in the study. The subjects were genotyped using tetra-primer amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction (Tetra-ARMS-PCR) and their clinical traits were analyzed.
A significant association was found between the rs1052700 polymorphism and T2D, and between the FTO rs3751812 polymorphism and obesity (P = 0.03 and 0.003, respectively); however, no significant relationship was found between rs3751812 and T2D.
The FTO rs3751812 polymorphism is a major genetic determinant of obesity, but not T2D. The rs1052700 polymorphism is related to T2D but not obesity.
perilipins是一种包裹脂肪细胞中脂质球的蛋白质，脂肪细胞是在脂质储存和分解中起核心作用的类固醇生成细胞。FTO基因与2型糖尿病（T2D）和脂肪量增加有关。在本研究中，调查了 perilipins和FTO基因多态性与T2D的关联。
183名患有T2D的伊朗男性和女性以及174名无已知代谢疾病的健康对照者参与了本研究。使用四引物扩增阻滞突变系统-聚合酶链反应（Tetra-ARMS-PCR）对受试者进行基因分型，并分析他们的临床特征。
perilipins rs1052700多态性与T2D之间以及FTO rs3751812多态性与肥胖之间存在显著关联（P值分别为0.03和0.003）；然而，rs3751812与T2D之间未发现显著关系。
FTO rs3751812多态性是肥胖的主要遗传决定因素，但不是T2D的主要遗传决定因素。perilipins rs1052700多态性与T2D有关，但与肥胖无关。
