No inheritance of early-onset female-related type 2 diabetes was reported within Chinese families. In this study, we aim to describe the inheritance pattern of type 2 diabetes in a 3-generation family and identify the gene responsible for type 2 diabetes. Genome-wide multipoint parametric linkage analysis revealed a maximum multipoint logarithm of odds (lod) score of 2.1 for a locus being associated with type 2 diabetes in this family on chromosome 20p11.2-12 between 23.5~30.8cM. Type 2 diabetes may be transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait with a high female-related penetrance in this family. Here we describe the first genetic locus for type 2 diabetes at chromosome 20p11.2-12. This region contains 8 known or predicted genes (PLCB1, PLCB4, LAMP5, PAK7, ANKEF1, SNAP25, SLX4IP, and JAG1). Gene SNAP25 which linked to energy or glucose homeostasis associated phenotypes may play a role in the development of type 2 diabetes in this family.
在中国家庭中,尚未有早发性女性相关2型糖尿病遗传的报道。在本研究中,我们旨在描述一个三代家庭中2型糖尿病的遗传模式,并确定导致2型糖尿病的基因。全基因组多点参数连锁分析显示,在20号染色体p11.2 - 12区域,23.5至30.8厘摩之间,该家族中与2型糖尿病相关的一个位点的最大多点对数优势(lod)得分为2.1。在这个家族中,2型糖尿病可能作为一种常染色体显性性状遗传,女性相关的外显率较高。在此,我们描述了位于20号染色体p11.2 - 12上的首个2型糖尿病遗传位点。该区域包含8个已知或预测的基因(PLCB1、PLCB4、LAMP5、PAK7、ANKEF1、SNAP25、SLX4IP和JAG1)。与能量或葡萄糖稳态相关表型相关的基因SNAP25可能在这个家族的2型糖尿病发病中起作用。
