Abstract

To assess the effect of ethnicity, the association of WC, WHR and hypertension along with PGC-1α (Gly482Ser), UCP2 -866 G/A and SIRT1 -1400 T/C polymorphisms in seven endogamous caste groups and pooled population of Punjab. Study was conducted on 1813 individuals (859 T2D patients and 954 healthy controls) belonging to seven endogamous groups. Waist and hip circumference, height, weight and blood pressure were recorded following standard protocol using designed performa. PGC-1α (Gly482Ser) and UCP2 -866 G/A polymorphisms were genotyped using PCR RFLP and SIRT1 -1400 T/C was genotyped by direct DNA sequencing. WHR conferred risk in Brahmins (p=0.00003), Khtaris (p=0.001) and SCs (p=0.02). Similarly, we detected that WC conferred risk in BCs (p=0.012), Brahmins (p=0.016), Jat Sikhs (0.00025), Khatris (0.005) and SCs (p=0.015). In pooled population, all three factors imparted risk (WHR (p=0.00001), hypertension (p=0.003) and WC (p=0.0000016)). With respect to gene polymorphism, PGC-1α (Gly482Ser) was associated in Banias (p=0.0003), Jat Sikhs (p=0.003) and Khatris (p=0.03). Similarly, UCP2 -866 G>A showed risk in Banias (p=0.000004), BCs (p=0.01) and SCs (p=0.01). However, SIRT1 -1400 T>C showed risk only in Khatris (p=0.004). In ...Continue Reading
