    Notes: Summary A possible pathogenic mutation in the Β3-adrenergic-receptor gene (Trp64Arg) has been reported to be associated with an earlier age of onset of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and clinical features of the insulin resistance syndrome in Pima Indian, Finnish and French subjects. Since marked heterogeneity has been reported in the association of mutations of candidate genes with NIDDM between Japanese and other ethnic groups, we investigated the association of Trp64Arg with NIDDM in Japanese subjects. The allele frequency of the mutation (Arg) was slightly, but not significantly, higher in NIDDM than in control subjects (70 out of 342 alleles [20.5%] vs 40 out of 248 [16.1%], respectively, p〉0.2). When our data were combined with those of Pima Indian and Finnish subjects, however, the Arg/Arg genotype was significantly associated with NIDDM as compared with the other two genotypes (p〈0.005, relative risk [RR] 2.13, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.28–3.55). The Arg allele was also associated with NIDDM (p〈0.05, RR 1.27, 95% CI 1.06–1.52). Japanese subjects homozygous for the mutation had a significantly higher body mass index (mean ± SD∶25.5±3.9 kg/ m2) than heterozygotes (22.6±4.1, p〈0.05) and normal homozygotes (22.8±3.8, p〈0.05). NIDDM patients homozygous for the mutation tended to have an earlier age of onset of NIDDM than those with other genotypes. These data suggest that the Trp64Arg mutation not only contributes to weight gain and age-at-onset of NIDDM but is also associated with susceptibility to NIDDM.

    Notes: Summary A possible pathogenic mutation in the glucagon receptor gene causing a Gly to Ser change at codon 40 (Gly40Ser) was reported to be associated and linked with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), in France and Sardinia. Since the frequency of the mutation (Gly40Ser), about 5 % in the French population of familial NIDDM and 8 % in randomly chosen diabetic patients in Sardinia, was much higher than that of any of the previously reported mutations in candidate genes, it is important to clarify whether the contribution of this mutation to NIDDM is universal. In this study, we investigated the association of this mutation with diabetes mellitus in a large number of Japanese diabetic patients (383 NIDDM and 53 insulin-dependent diabetic patients) by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. None of the Japanese diabetic patients showed Gly40Ser mutation and the association of this mutation with NIDDM was significantly different (p 〈 4 · 10−5 vs French, p 〈 3 · 10−6 vs Sardinian by Fisher's exact test). The results not only indicate that the mutation plays little, if any, role in susceptibility to diabetes in Japan, but also indicate the genetic heterogeneity in NIDDM and further emphasize the importance of studies on genetic susceptibility to NIDDM and other complex traits in different ethnic groups.

    Notes: Summary A possible pathogenic mutation in the β 3-adrenergic-receptor gene (Trp64Arg) has been reported to be associated with an earlier age of on-set of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and clinical features of the insulin resistance syndrome in Pima Indian, Finnish and French subjects. Since marked heterogeneity has been reported in the association of mutations of candidate genes with NIDDM between Japanese and other ethnic groups, we investigated the association of Trp64Arg with NIDDM in Japanese subjects.

    Notes: Summary Two angiotensin II analogues (AIIA), 1-sarcosine, 8-isoleucine angiotensin II ([Sar1, Ile8]-AII) and 1-sarcosine, 8-alanine angiotensin II ([Sar1, Ala8-AII), were infused in six normal volunteers on high, regular and low sodium diets. The agonist and antagonist activities of these AIIA on blood pressure (BP), plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC), creatinine clearance and plasma renin activity were examined. Both AIIA had agonistic pressor activities in subjects on high and regular sodium diets, [Sar1, Ile8]-AII being more potent than [Sar1, Ala8]-AII. Both AIIA caused similar elevation of PAC in subjects on high and regular sodium diets, and an equally fall in PAC in subjects on a low sodium diet. Both AIIA strongly antagonized the rise in BP, the increase in PAC and the reduction of Ccr induced by AII administration in subjects on all three sodium diets. The results indicate that both AIIA can be used to examine the activity of the renin-angiotensin system in patients with hypertension, and they also suggest that AII interaction with its receptors differs in different target tissues.

    Notes: Summary The biological effects of 1-Sarcosine, 8-Threonine angiotensin II ([Sar1, Thr8]ANG II) on blood pressure, plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) and plasma renin activity (PRA) were investigated in six normal subjects on an unrestricted diet, and compared with those of 1-Sarcosine, 8-Isoleucine ANG II ([Sar1, Ile8]ANG II) and 1-Sarcosine, 8-Alanine ANG II ([Sar1, Ala8]ANG II). All three ANG II analogues (A II A) showed agonistic pressor activity, that of [Sar1, Ile8]ANG II being greater than that of [Sar1, Thr8]ANG II or [Sar1, Ala8]ANG II. The antagonistic effect of [Sar1, Thr8]ANG II on blood pressure was less than [Sar1, Ile8]ANG II or [Sar1, Ala8]ANG II. Both [Sar1, Ile8]ANG II and [Sar1, Ala8]ANG II increased PAC and blocked the steroidogenic action of ANG II, while [Sar1, Thr8]ANG II showed little effect on PAC. All three A II A caused similar suppression of PRA and showed no inhibitory effect on the decrease in PRA produced by ANG II. These results indicate that [Sar1, Thr8] ANG II is an A II A with weak agonistic pressor action and that it has vascular selective properties. It is also suggested that ANG II receptors in a variety of target organs are heterogeneous.
