Biochemical and biophysical research communications, 2005•ElsevierTo examine the association of the ATP-binding cassette transporter 1 (ABCA1) gene with
type 2 diabetes (DM), we studied genetic polymorphisms of the ABCA1 gene including its
linkage disequilibrium (LD) and haplotype analyses using a Japanese population. A sample
set (DM: 72, IGT: 75, and NGT: 227) was genotyped with 34 SNPs distributed from the
promoter region to the last exon of the ABCA1 gene. LD between SNPs was assessed in
pairwise manner. Among 13 LD blocks constructed, an LD block at the 5′-region showed a …

To examine the association of the ATP-binding cassette transporter 1 (ABCA1) gene with type 2 diabetes (DM), we studied genetic polymorphisms of the ABCA1 gene including its linkage disequilibrium (LD) and haplotype analyses using a Japanese population. A sample set (DM:72, IGT:75, and NGT:227) was genotyped with 34 SNPs distributed from the promoter region to the last exon of the ABCA1 gene. LD between SNPs was assessed in pairwise manner. Among 13 LD blocks constructed, an LD block at the 5′-region showed a significant difference in the haplotype distribution between the study groups (NGT vs. IGT+DM: overall p=0.0180; NGT vs. DM: 0.0001). Fisher’s exact probability test (NGT vs. DM) showed a significant association of the haplotype 2 of the LD block (p=0.0001), with an odds ratio (OR) of 2.53 (95%CI:1.62–4.12). Diplotype analysis also showed a significant association of the diplotypes with the haplotype 2 (OR:2.59, 95%CI:1.48–4.54, p=0.0013).
