Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease that seriously threatens human health. Prediabetes is a stage in the progression of DM. The level of clinical indicators including fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-h postprandial glucose (2hPG), and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C) are the diagnostic markers of diabetes. In this genome-wide association study (GWAS), we aimed to investigate the association of genetic variants with these phenotypes in Hainan prediabetes. In this study, we recruited 451 prediabetes patients from the residents aged ≥18 years who participated in the National Diabetes Prevalence Survey of the Chinese Medical Association in 2017. The GWAS of FPG, 2hPG, HbA1C, and body mass index (BMI) in prediabetes was analyzed with a linear model using an additive genetic model with adjustment for age and sex. We identified that rs13052524 in MRPS6 and rs62212118 in SLC5A3 were associated with 2hPG in Hainan prediabetes (p = 4.35 × 10-6, p = 4.05 × 10-6, respectively). Another six variants in the four genes (LINC01648, MATN1, CRAT37, and SLCO3A1) were related to HbA1C. Moreover, rs11142842, rs1891298, rs1891299, and rs11142843 in TRPM3/TMEM2 and rs78432036 in MLYCD/OSGIN1 were correlated to BMI (all p < 5 × 10-6). This study is the first to determine the genome-wide association of FPG, 2hPG, and HbA1C, which emphasizes the importance of in-depth understanding of the phenotypes of high-value susceptibility gene markers in the diagnosis of prediabetes.

Introduction

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an endocrine metabolic disease caused by many pathogenic factors (genetic and environmental factors included) marked by elevated blood glucose, becoming a global public health problem (1, 2). According to statistics, there are about 100 million DM over the age of 20 in China, which is expected to increase to 143 million by 2035 (3). Type 2 DM (T2D) is the main type of DM. Prediabetes is a special state between health and diabetes, in which blood glucose is elevated without meeting the diagnostic criteria for DM. Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and impaired fasting glucose (IFG) are high risk factors for developing prediabetes and are defined as the level of fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-h postprandial glucose (2hPG), and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C) in diabetes (4). Moreover, people with prediabetes are more likely to develop T2D than the general population (5).

Genome-wide association study (GWAS), a common genetic analysis tool, provides insights into the molecular status of complex diseases such as T2D and supports risk prediction (6). For example, Choi et al. (7) used the GWAS to detect the association of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with microalbuminuria in patients with prediabetes, and they found two susceptibility loci related to prediabetes. Additionally, Soranzo et al. (8) used GWAS to identify 10 genetic loci associated with HbA1C at genome-wide levels of significance in European non-diabetic adults. Ge et al. (9) reported that 9 genetic loci were significantly related to an increased FPG level in T2D. Another study also showed that multiple GWAS variants were associated with FPG in African-American non-diabetes (10). Epidemic obesity is the most important risk factor for prediabetes (11). Taken together, we speculate that genetic predisposition to prediabetes might be associated with some risk factors such as FPG, 2hPG, and HbA1C. However, the association between FPG, 2hPG, HbA1C, and body mass index (BMI) and genetic variants has not been studied in Hainan prediabetes.

In this GWAS analysis, we recruited 451 prediabetes patients in Hainan province to investigate the association of genetic susceptibility loci with the phenotypes including FPG, 2hPG, HbA1C, and BMI. Our study will provide a new perspective for the prevention and diagnosis of diabetes in Hainan province.

Materials and Methods

Study Population

In this study, we recruited 451 prediabetes patients from the residents aged ≥18 years who participated in the National Diabetes Prevalence Survey of the Chinese Medical Association in 2017. The diagnostic criteria of prediabetes was 5.7% ≤ HbA1C < 6.4% or 140 mg/dl (7.8 mmol/L) ≤ 2hPG < 200 mg/dl (11.1 mmol/L) or 100 mg/dl (5.6 mmol/L) ≤ FPG < 126 mg/dl (7.0 mmol/L) (12). All the participants were informed of the purpose of the study and signed the written informed consent forms. Our study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Hainan Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical University [Med-Eth-Re (2019) 18], and all experiments were carried out in accordance with the standard protocol of Helsinki’s Declaration of 1964 and its later amendments.

A 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was performed to test the level of 2hPG in accordance with the protocol of a published article (13). The FPG level was tested using an automatic biochemical analyzer. The concentration of HbA1C was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).

Genomic DNA Extraction and Genotyping

Genomic DNA was extracted from a whole-blood sample using a whole-blood genomic DNA purification kit (Xi’an GoldMag Nanobiotech Co., Ltd., Xi’an, Shaanxi, China). Genotyping was detected by Axiom™ Precision Medicine Diversity Array (PMDA; Thermo Fisher Scientific Technology Co., Ltd., Shanghai, China). Affymetrix Gene Titan was performed to genotype calling, and data were analyzed by Axiom Analysis Suite 6.0 software.

Imputation and Quality Control

A total of 108,825 SNPs were obtained after genotyping. Quality control (QC) procedure was applied for genotyping. All individuals through the QC could be applied in the final statistical analysis. A total of 108,825 SNPs were obtained after genotyping. Among them, 103,506 SNPs met the criteria of the QC with sample call rate >0.95, maker call rate >0.90, and Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) >5e-06, which were used for the final GWAS analysis. Genotype clustering was conducted by Axiom Analysis Suite 6.0 software. In addition, the genotype data were imputed with 1000 Genomes Project phase 3 reference panel by IMPUTE2 software (14, 15) to 9,378,219 SNPs. SNPs with a minor allele frequency (MAF) <1%, info >0.3, Indel, copy number variation (CNV), duplication, non-biallelic variants, and loci from sex chromosome were removed for the QC procedure of imputation. After imputation, we finally obtained 1,752,717 SNPs.

Statistical Analyses

This study was based on the 3σ principle to remove the extreme values of FPG, 2hPG, and HbA1C; and the levels of these indexes were normalized using rank-based inverse normal transformations by the R package RNOmni. The associations between SNPs and each phenotype including FPG, 2hPG, HbA1C, and BMI were evaluated by a linear model using an additive genetic model with adjustment for age and sex. The value of p < 5 × 10-8 indicated a statistical significance in this GWAS analysis, and p < 5 × 10-6 suggested a suggestively significant genome-wide association. Predictions of the possible function of candidate SNPs were performed using the HaploReg v4.1 online tool (https://pubs.broadinstitute.org/mammals/haploreg/haploreg.php). The distribution of FPG, 2hPG, HbA1C, and BMI in different genotypes was evaluated by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), and p < 0.05 was set to be statistically significant.

Results

Study Subjects

In this study, a total of 451 prediabetes patients including 216 men and 235 women from Hainan province were recruited to evaluate the association of FPG, 2hPG, HbA1C, and BMI with 1,752,717 genotyped SNPs using a genome-wide association analysis. The average age of participants was 51.78 ± 14.49 years. The characteristics of the study population were shown in Table 1.

Association of Genetic Variants With Fasting Plasma Glucose, 2-h Postprandial Glucose, Glycosylated Hemoglobin, and Body Mass Index in Prediabetes

Manhattan plot (Figure 1) exhibited the chromosome location of suggestive loci for serum levels of 2hPG, HbA1C, and BMI. Genomic inflation factor (λ) was 1.010, 1.011, 1.015, and 1.013 for FPG, 2hPG, HbA1C, and BMI, respectively. A quantile-quantile (Q-Q) plot of the GWAS-analysis p-values shows that the test statistics follow null expectations and no small p values exceed expectations (Figure S1). After imputation, eight loci in different chromosomal regions with suggestive significance of p values <5 × 10-6 were shown in Table 2. Two SNPs (rs13052524, rs62212118) in the MRPS6/SLC5A3 gene were associated with 2hPG (p = 4.35 × 10-6, p = 4.03 × 10-6; respectively). Furthermore, five SNPs, rs142013708, rs140071694, rs150306839, rs138084074, and rs142002616, in LINC01648/MATN1 and rs11853125 in CRAT37/SLCO3A1 were correlated to HbA1C (all p < 5 × 10-6). Moreover, rs11142842, rs1891298, rs1891299, and rs11142843 in TRPM3/TMEM2 and rs78432036 in MLYCD/OSGIN1 were correlated to BMI (all p < 5 × 10-6). The results of HaploRegv4.1 displayed that these SNPs might be associated with the regulation of promoter and/or enhancer histones, DNAse, changed motifs, and selected eQTL hits (Table 2).

We also investigated the association of SNP with FPG, 2hPG, and HbA1C under the dominant model and recessive model; the results were presented in Table S1. In the dominant model, three SNPs (rs9550371, rs13052524, and rs62212118) were related to 2hPG (all p < 5 × 10-6), and 12 SNPs (rs142013708, rs140071694, rs150306839, rs138084074, rs142002616, rs1371810, rs1371809, rs4146607, rs4146606, rs13157326, rs6880621, and rs11745300) were associated with HbA1C (all p < 5 × 10-6). Besides, five SNPs (rs7624734, rs11142842, rs1891298, rs1891299, and rs11142843) were associated with BMI (all p < 5 × 10-6). The recessive model showed that 10 SNPs (rs4661250, rs3095307, rs3094203, rs3094202, rs3094201, rs3095302, rs3094200, rs3094198, rs3095301, and rs3131003) were associated with FPG (all p < 5 × 10-6), that 10 SNPs (rs201438706, rs12649862, rs41476645, rs12647991, rs12644845, rs12648073, rs12644936, rs12504012, rs34938732, and rs13119926) were related to 2hPG (all p < 5 × 10-6), and that two SNPs (rs946911 and rs2415427) were correlated with HbA1C (all p < 5 × 10-6). Moreover, two SNPs (rs62006357 and rs62008861) were correlated with BMI (all p < 5 × 10-6). We finally constructed the locus chart by LocalZoom online software, and the locus zoom plots of SNPs that were associated with 2hPG, HbA1C, and BMI are shown in Figures 25.

Association Between the Genotype of Selected Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms and Fasting Plasma Glucose, 2-h Postprandial Glucose, Glycosylated Hemoglobin, and Body Mass Index in Prediabetes

The association between the genotype of selected SNPs and FPG, 2hPG, HbA1C, and BMI in prediabetes was assessed, and the results were displayed in Table 3. The genotypes of rs13052524 and rs62212118 were associated with the level of 2hPG (p < 0.001). Besides, rs142013708, rs140071694, rs150306839, rs138084074, and rs142002616 were related to HbA1C levels (p = 0.004). Moreover, rs11142842, rs1891298, rs1891299, rs11142843, and rs78432036 were associated with BMI (p < 0.05).

Discussion

T2D is a multifactorial disease affected by interactions of genetics, environment, and metabolism. The increases of FPG, 2hPG, and HbA1C levels are not only the symptoms of T2D but also independent risk factors for T2D (16, 17). The data of the epidemiological survey show that the risk of T2D begins even within the range of normal fasting blood glucose and increases exponentially in prediabetes (1820). GWAS analysis is widely used in the association of genetic variants and phenotypes in T2D (2123). Can genetic variants affect the phenotypes in prediabetes? In this study, we performed GWAS to determine the effect of genetic variants on FPG, 2hPG, HbA1C, and BMI in Hainan prediabetes. We found two susceptibility loci in MRPS6/SLC5A3 genes associated with 2hPG, six loci in LINC01648, MATN1, CRAT37, and SLCO3A1 genes associated with HbA1C, and five loci in TRPM3/TMEM2 and MLYCD/OSGIN1 correlated to BMI in Hainan prediabetes. To the best of our knowledge, our study is the first to detect the association of SNPs with FPG, 2hPG, HbA1C, and BMI in Hainan prediabetes.

Rs13052524 and rs62212118 are located in the intergenic region between Mitochondrial Ribosomal Protein S6 (MRPS6) and Solute Carrier Family 5 Member 3 (SLC5A3) at chromosome 21. MRPS6 is a protein-coding gene. Previous GWASs have shown that MRPS6 is associated with a variety of human diseases including diabetes (24, 25). SLC5A3 is an inositol transporter that helps maintain osmotic balance in different tissues or organs, including kidney (26). An increasing number of studies indicate that SLC5A3 plays an important role in diabetes-related metabolism (27, 28). Moreover, Beaney et al. (25) showed that SLC5A3 polymorphisms were associated with human diseases such as coronary heart disease. Our study showed that rs13052524 and rs62212118 loci in the MRPS6 gene were related to 2hPG level in the Hainan prediabetes, suggesting that these two loci might play a certain function in the regulation of 2hPG level. However, there are no related reports about rs13052524 and rs62212118 loci. HaploReg is a tool for exploring annotations of the non-coding genome at variants on haplotype blocks, such as candidate regulatory SNPs at disease-associated loci. Based on HaploReg, we found that rs13052524 and rs62212118 might be associated with enhancer histone marks, motifs changed, and selected eQTL hits, suggesting that the association of rs13052524 and rs62212118 with 2hPG level might be involved in regulating gene expression. However, the potential function of these polymorphisms needs to be confirmed by further experiments.

Rs142013708, rs140071694, rs150306839, rs138084074, and rs142002616 are located in the region between Long Intergenic Non-Protein-Coding RNA 1648 (LINC01648) and Matrilin-1 (MATN1) at chromosome 1. MATN1 is a chondrocyte extracellular matrix protein, which serves as a marker of cell differentiation (29). Early studies have found that MATN1 gene plays an important role in endochondral ossification (30, 31). Additionally, more and more studies have shown that MANT1 genetic polymorphism is closely related to dental malocclusions of humans (3234). In our study, we found that five novel loci in MATN1 gene were related to HbA1C in prediabetes. Based on HaploReg, we found that rs140071694, rs150306839, and rs138084074 might be associated with changed motifs, suggesting that the association of rs140071694, rs150306839, and rs138084074 with HbA1C level might be involved in regulating changed motifs of gene. However, there are no reports on these loci, and the functions of these loci are still unknown that need to be further studied. The potential function of these polymorphisms needs to be confirmed by further experiments.

Rs11853125 is located at the region between Cervical Cancer-Associated Transcript 37 (CRAT37) and Solute Carrier Organic Anion Transporter Family Member 3A1 (SLCO3A1). SLCO3A1 is an organic anion transporter that participates in the transport of non‐nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) across the membrane (35, 36), which is associated with human diseases including intestinal perforation and primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy. Furthermore, GWAS showed that the polymorphisms in this gene contributed to occurrence of some human diseases (37, 38). At present, there are no reports that this gene is related to diabetes. Here, we found that rs11853125 was related to HbA1C in prediabetes, suggesting that rs11853125 might contribute to the regulation of HbA1C level. However, the potential function needs to be explored.

Rs11142842, rs1891298, rs1891299, and rs11142843 are located in the region between transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 3 (TRPM3) and transmembrane protein 2 (TMEM2) at chromosome 9q21.12-q21.13. TRPM3 belongs to the melastatin subfamily of TRP channels and represents a non-selective cation channel that can be activated by several different stimuli, including the neurosteroid pregnenolone sulfate, osmotic pressures, and heat (39). TRPM3 polymorphisms were reported to be associated with systemic sclerosis, aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD), and developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) (4042). Transmembrane 2 (TMEM2) was a cell surface protein that possesses potent hyaluronidase activity (43). Here, we found that rs11142842, rs1891298, rs1891299, and rs11142843 were related to BMI in prediabetes. The potential function of these polymorphisms needs to be confirmed by further experiments.

Our study had some limitations. First, our sample size is relatively small in GWAS, and we would expand the sample size to verify our result in the future. Second, replication testing should be carried out to confirm the present data in the next work. Third, this study does not classify SNP with age/sex/BMI to investigate age/sex/BMI differences in SNP effects. Despite the above limitations, this is the first time to study the association between genetic polymorphism and the risk factors in Hainan Han Chinese prediabetes, and our study provides available information for further insight in the etiology of diabetes.

Conclusions

In summary, we identified two novel SNPs (rs13052524 and rs62212118) in MRPS6/SLC5A3 that were associated with 2hPG in Hainan prediabetes. Another six loci (rs142013708, rs140071694, rs150306839, rs138084074, rs142002616, and rs11853125) in four genes (LINC01648, MATN1, CRAT37, and SLCO3A1) were related to HbA1C.
