Hence, we performed an integrated review and meta-analysis for the researches regarding the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in GCKR, SLC30A8 and FTO genes and GDM risk.
The rs13266634/T (SLC30A8, OR = 0.74/0.71, p = 0.05/0.02) and rs7578326/G (LOC646736/IRS1, OR = 0.62/0.60, p = 0.001/0.006) variants were associated with lower risk to develop GDM.
We investigated the association of the polymorphisms rs7799039 (LEP) and rs13266634 (SLC30A8) in a case-control study in Euro-Brazilians with gestational diabetes (GDM, N = 134) and healthy pregnant women (control, N = 180).
Our data indicate that gestational weight gain may modify SLC30A8 variant on long-term glycemic changes, highlighting the importance of gestational weight control in the prevention of postpartum hyperglycemia in women with GDM.
The prevalence and predictive value of the SLC30A8R325W polymorphism and zinc transporter 8 autoantibodies in the development of GDM and postpartum type 1 diabetes.
Compared with controls (men and women combined), GDM was associated with rs7756992 and rs7754840 (OR 1.55, 95% CI 1.34-1.79, p = 4.17 x 10(-9)) in CDKAL1; rs10811661 (OR 1.49, 95% CI 1.29-1.72, p = 1.05 x 10(-7)) in the CDKN2A-CDKN2B region; rs1111875 (OR 1.27, 95% CI 1.09-1.49, p = 0.003), rs5015480, and rs7923837 in HHEX; rs4402960 (OR 1.18, 95% CI 1.01-1.38, p = 0.03) in IGF2BP2; rs13266634 (OR 1.24, 95% CI 1.07-1.43, p = 0.005) in SLC30A8; and rs7903146 (OR 1.58, 95% CI 1.03-2.43, p = 0.038) in TCF7L2.
