Abstract

Objective: To investigate the association between three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) gene family and susceptibility to type 2 diabetes mellitus in a Chinese Han population. Methods: A total of 1086 type 2 diabetes patients and 1122 healthy controls were included in this retrospective study. Three genetic variants, rs1800977 and rs4149313 in ABCA1, and rs1128503 in ABCB1 were included in the study. Susceptibility to type 2 diabetes was evaluated under three genetic models. Results: A significant association between rs1800977 and type 2 diabetes was identified in three different genetic models (TT vs CC, odds ratio [OR] = 0.611 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.469–0.798]; T vs C, OR = 0.841 [95% CI, 0.745–0.950]; and the recessive model, OR = 0.606 [95% CI, 0.474–0.774]). Additionally, a significant association between rs4149313 and type 2 diabetes was identified in three different genetic models (AA vs GG, OR = 0.467 [95% CI, 0.326–0.670]; A vs G, OR = 0.819 [95% CI, 0.717–0.935]; and the recessive model, OR = 0.478 [95% CI, 0.336–0.680]). Conclusion: We found that SNPs rs1800977 and rs4149313 in ABCA1 are significantly associated with susceptibility to type 2 diabetes in a Chinese population, although this should be confirmed in a larger study.
