Methods STRs including D11S916 of uncoupling protein 3 (UCP3) gene,binucleotide repeat (CA)n within intron 6 [HSLi6(CA)] of hormone-sensitive lipase(HSL)gene and D20S501 of protein tyrosine phosphatase-1B (PTP-1B)gene polymorphisms were detected, by poiymerase chain reaction(PCR) ,poly-acrylamide gel electrophoresis and silver staining in 106 patients with type 2 DM and 102 control subjects. Results The allele distribution of UCP3 and HSL gene differed significantly between patients with type 2 diabetes and control subjects (X2 = 26. 12,P<0. 005; X2 = 10. 33,P<0. 005,respectively). For UCP3 and HSL gene,the frequencies of alleles A6,A7,A8 and allele B9 were much higher in diabetic patients than in control subjects (0. 090 vs 0. 020,P<0. 005; 0. 109 vs 0. 015,P <0. 005; 0. 033 vs 0. 000,P<0. 05; 0. 033 vs 0. 005,P<0. 05,respectively),while the frequencies of allele A1 and allele B5 were lower in diabetic patients than in control subjects (0. 090 vs 0. 206,P<0. 005; 0. 057 vs 0. 118,P<0. 05,respectively). At D20S501 locus,The allele distribution of PTP-1B gene had no significant difference in two groups (X2 = 3. 77, P>0. 05). Multi-variate logistic regression analysis showed positive correlation between alleles A6,A7 of UCP3 gene,systolic blood pressure, apolipoprotein B, lipoprotein (a) and type 2 diabetes. Conclusion Our data show that D11S916 of UCP3 gene and HSLi6(CA) of HSL gene polymorphisms are associated with type 2 diabetes in Chinese suggesting that UCP3 and HSL might represent susceptibility genes for type 2 diabetes. D20S501 of PTP-IB gem polymorphism is not associated with type 2 diabetes in Chinese. Alleles A6, A7 of UCP3 gene, systolic blood pressure, apolipoprotein B,Upoprotein (a) may play some role in the development of type 2 diabetes.展开更多
