Four alleles were observed in Chinese population with length varying from 137bp to 143bp and the most common one being the 139bp allele 3. In comparison with non-diabetics, allele 4 was significantly increased in type 2 diabetes (10% versus 38, respectively; X(2)=6.773, P=0.009); genotype 44 and 4X (X denotes any allele other than allele 4) were significantly increased in type 2 diabetes (16% versus 6% respectively; X(2)=6.439, P=0.011), The frequency difference was also shown in overweight / obese subgroup comparison (X(2)=7.718, P=0.021), but not in lean / normal-weight subgroup comparison, No differences of age of onset and frequency of positive family history were observed between type 2 diabetic patients with genotype 44 or 4X and those with XX. The risk for type 2 diabetes in Chinese with genotype 44 or 4X was about 3.5 times higher than in Chinese with genotype XX. Therefore, GCK gene was associated with Chinese type 2 diabetes.展开更多
