Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Epidemiological studies in Pima Indians identified elevated levels of HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) as a protective factor against type 2 diabetes risk in women. We assessed whether HDL-C-associated single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) also associate with type 2 diabetes in female Pima Indians. METHODS: Twenty-one SNPs in established HDL-C loci were initially analysed in 2,675 full-heritage Pima Indians. SNPs shown to associate with HDL-C (12 SNPs) were assessed for association with type 2 diabetes in 7,710 Pima Indians (55.6% female sex). The CETP locus provided the strongest evidence for association with HDL-C and was further interrogated by analysing tag SNPs. RESULTS: Twelve of the 21 SNPs analysed had a significant association with HDL-C in Pima Indians; five SNPs representing four loci (CETP, DOCK6, PPP1R3B and ABCA1) reached genome-wide significance. Three SNPs, at CETP, KLF14 and HNF4A, associated with type 2 diabetes only in female participants with the HDL-C-lowering allele increasing diabetes risk (p values: 3.2 × 10(-4) to 7.7 × 10(-5)); the association remained significant even after adjustment for HDL-C. Additional analysis across CETP identified rs6499863 as having the strongest association with type 2 diabetes in female participants (p = 5.0 × 10(-6)) and this association remained independent of the HDL-C association. CONCLUSIONS/ INTERPRETATION: SNPs at the CETP, HNF4A and KLF14 locus are associated with HDL-C levels and type 2 diabetes (in female participants). However, since HNF4A and KLF14 are established loci for type 2 diabetes, it is unlikely that HDL-C solely mediates these associations.
