GENES AND TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS

Prime suspect: the TCF7L2 gene and type 2 diabetes risk
Andrew T Hattersley
Institute of Biomedical and Clinical Sciences, Peninsula Medical School, Exeter, United
Kingdom

Transcription factor-7like 2 TCF7L2 is the most important type 2 diabetes susceptibility gene identified to date, with common intronic variants strongly associated with diabetes in all major racial groups This ubiquitous transcription factor in the Wnt signaling pathway was not previously known to be involved in glucose homeostasis, so defining the underlying mechanisms will provide new insights into diabetes In this issue of the JCI, Lyssenko and colleagues report on their human and isolated islet studies and suggest that the risk allele increases TCF7L2 expression in the pancreatic cell, reducing insulin secretion and hence predisposing the individual to diabetes

Hattersley, JCI 2007

Figure 1 From genetic association to pathophysiology in TCF7L2 genotypes predisposing to type 2 diabetes Diagram of proposed pathophysiological pathway explaining how TCF7L2 risk genotypes predispose to type 2 diabetes The risk genotype results in overexpression of TCF7L2 in pancreatic cells, which in turn results in reduced insulin secretion Reduced insulin secretion results in a predisposition to type 2 diabetes directly and also indirectly by increasing hepatic glucose output Dotted
arrows represent previous genetic associations Solid arrows show observations reported by Lyssenko and colleagues in the current issue of the JCI 1
