    Notizen: Summary The K+ inwardly rectifier channel (KIR) is one of the two sub-units of the pancreatic islet ATP-sensitive potassium channel complex (IKATP), which has a key role in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and thus is a potential candidate for a genetic defect in Type II (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus. We did a molecular screening of the KIR6.2 gene by single strand conformational polymorphism (SSCP) and direct sequencing in 72 French Caucasian Type II diabetic families. We identified three nucleotide substitutions resulting in three amino acid changes (E23K, L270V and I337V), that have also been identified in other Caucasian Type II diabetic subjects. These variants were genotyped in French cohorts of 191 unrelated Type II diabetic probands and 119 normoglycaemic control subjects and association studies were done. The genotype frequencies of the L270V and I337V variants were not very different between Type II diabetic subjects and control groups. In contrast, analysis of the E23K variant showed that the KK homozygocity was more frequent in Type II diabetic than in control subjects (27 vs 14 %, p = 0.015). Analyses in a recessive model (KK vs EK/EE) tended to show a stronger association of the K allele with diabetes (p = 0.0097, corrected p-value for multiple testing 〈 0.02). The data for the E23K variant obtained here and those obtained from three other Caucasian groups studied so far were combined and investigated by meta-analysis. Overall, the E23K variant was found to be significantly associated with Type II diabetes (0.001 ≤p≤ 0.0016, corrected p-values for multiple testing p≤ 0.01). This study shows that KIR6.2 polymorphisms are frequently associated with Type II diabetes in French Caucasians. Furthermore, a meta-analysis combining different Caucasian groups suggests an significant role of KIR6.2 in the polygenic context of Type II diabetes. [Diabetologia (1998) 41: 1511–1515]

    Notizen: Summary Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a heterogeneous subtype of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus characterised by early onset, autosomal dominant inheritance and a primary defect in insulin secretion. To date five MODY genes have been identified: hepatocyte nuclear factor-4 alpha (HNF-4 α/MODY1/TCF14) on chromosome 20 q, glucokinase (GCK/MODY2) on chromosome 7 p, hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 alpha (HNF-1 α/MODY3/TCF1) on chromosome 12 q, insulin promoter factor-1 (IPF1/MODY4) on chromosome 13 q and hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 beta (HNF-1 β/MODY5/TCF2) on chromosome 17cen-q. We have screened the HNF-4 α, HNF-1 α and HNF-1 β genes in members of 18 MODY kindreds who tested negative for glucokinase mutations. Five missense (G31D, R159W, A161T, R200W, R271W), one substitution at the splice donor site of intron 5 (IVS5nt + 2T→A) and one deletion mutation (P379fsdelT) were found in the HNF-1 α gene, but no MODY-associated mutations were found in the HNF-4 α and HNF-1 β genes. Of 67 French MODY families that we have now studied, 42 (63 %) have mutations in the glucokinase gene, 14 (21 %) have mutations in the HNF-1 α gene, and 11 (16 %) have no mutations in the HNF-4 α, IPF1 and HNF-1 β genes. Eleven families do not have mutations in the five known MODY genes suggesting that there is at least one additionnal locus that can cause MODY. [Diabetologia (1998) 41: 1017–1023]
