Recent advances and perspectives in next generation sequencing application to the genetic research of type 2 diabetes

Abstract: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) mellitus is a common complex disease that currently affects more than 400 million people worldwide and has become a global health problem. High-throughput sequencing technologies such as whole-genome and whole-exome sequencing approaches have provided numerous new insights into the molecular bases of T2D. Recent advances in the application of sequencing technologies to T2D research include, but are not limited to: (1) Fine mapping of causal rare and common genetic variants; (2) Identifica… Show more

“…T2D etiology is known to have a significant genetic component that is confirmed by family- and twin-based studies [ 4 ]. The development of high-throughput and affordable genotyping technologies, statistical tools and computational software has led to the remarkable progress in the search for genetic associations in recent years [ 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 ]. Since the first genome-wide association study (GWAS) for T2D identified novel susceptibility loci in 2007, more than 100 T2D susceptibility loci have been discovered [ 10 ].…”

“…Despite the primary role of environmental factors such as smoking, poor diet, and sedentary lifestyle in T2DM development and progression, the basis for genetic susceptibility has also been investigated ( 19-21 ). As might be expected, many genes regulating host metabolism and hormonal regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism have been associated with T2DM ( 20 ). However, genetic variation accounts for only a small proportion of risk of developing T2DM, and environmental factors play a predominant role in driving the progression of this slowly developing disease ( Fig.…”

“…Some of them are: (1) mapping of rare as well as common genetic variants (e.g., identification of COBLL1 and MACF1 from Danish population studies), (2) identification of epigenetic markers (e.g., TCF7L2 as blood biomarker), (3) RNA-Seq mediated transcriptional profiling of cellular and tissue samples (e.g., identification of miR-375 RNA affecting genes of pancreatic islets), etc. [4,41,89,126].…”
