Introduction: Genetic factors play an important role in the development of type 2 diabetes. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of polymorphism CASQ1 (rs2275703) in 100 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Kurdistan, Iran.
Materials & Methods: This study was conducted based on a case-control design. After obtaining the informed consent, the blood samples were obtained from patients with T2DM who were over 35 years of age. In total, 100 blood samples from the patient group and 100 blood samples from the control group (with matched age and gender) were assessed for the status of CASQ1 (rs2275703) using Tetra-Arms polymerase chain reaction method. The data were then analyzed statistically. Ethics code: IR.MUK.REC.1396/319
Findings: Out of 100 healthy individuals (60 males and 40 females), 34 and 47 ones had genotype AA4, respectively. Moreover, 4 and 13 cases had genotype AC, and 0 and 2 individuals had genotype CC. Additionally, out of all healthy individuals and diabetic patients, 81 and 71 cases had genotype AA, respectively; moreover, 17 and 25 cases had genotype AC. In addition, out of 100 healthy individuals and 100 patients, 2 and 4 cases had genotype CC, respectively. There was no significant relationship between CASQ1 rs2275703 polymorphism and T2DM (P=0.241).
Discussion & Conclusions: According to the results, no significant relationship was observed between CASQ1 (rs2275703) polymorphism and T2DM in the population under study.
