1 17786204 By genotyping of 921 metabolically characterized German subjects for the reported candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), we show that the major alleles of the SLC30A8 SNP rs13266634 and the HHEX SNP rs7923837 associate with reduced insulin secretion stimulated by orally or intravenously administered glucose, but not with insulin resistance.
2 19655390 In pancreatic islets, insulin production is linked with zinc transport mediated by zinc transporter ZnT-8, a product of the SLC30A8 gene.
3 19655390 Therefore, altered activity of ZnT-8 is expected to be associated with impaired glucose-induced insulin response and promote progression from glucose intolerance to diabetes.
4 20490449 In this issue of Diabetologia, Wijesekara and colleagues, using a cell-specific Znt8 (also known as Slc30a8) knockout model, demonstrate that beta cell insulin processing and glucose tolerance is negatively affected after beta cell knock out of Znt8, whereas Znt8 knockout in alpha cells seems to have little effect on glucagon secretion or glucose tolerance.
5 21461562 ZnT-8 has been suggested as a potential candidate in the regulation of insulin secretion in pancreatic ?-cells.
6 20351753 We tested the hypothesis that the polymorphic residue at position 325 of ZnT-8 determines the susceptibility to cyclosporin A (CsA) suppression of insulin secretion.
7 20351753 A reduced number of insulin granule fusion events accompanied the decrease in insulin secretion in CsA-treated cells expressing ZnT-8 R325; however, ZnT-8 W325-expressing cells exhibited resistance to the dampening of insulin granule fusion by CsA, and transported zinc ions into secretory vesicles more efficiently.
8 20351753 These data suggest that the ZnT-8 W325 variant is protective against CsA-induced suppression of insulin secretion.
9 21779873 We found that increasing dosage of the C risk allele at SLC30A8 rs13266634 was significantly associated with higher proinsulin levels at baseline (p?=?0.002) after adjustment for baseline insulin.
10 21779873 At the 1 year analysis, proinsulin levels decreased significantly in all groups receiving active intervention and were no longer associated with SLC30A8 genotype (p?=?0.86) after adjustment for insulin at baseline and 1 year.
11 21437630 TCF7L2 and SLC30A8 have been found to be associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) as well as with impaired proinsulin processing recently, enzymes encoded by PCSK1 and PCSK2 are reported to play an important role in the process of proinsulin conversion.
12 21437630 To investigate whether the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of TCF7L2, SLC30A8, PCSK1 and PCSK2 were associated with T2DM as well as with proinsulin conversion in a Han Chinese population from Chongqing.
13 21437630 Rs13266634 at SLC30A8 had a tendency to be associated with fasting plasma levels of proinsulin (P = 0.0639 in additive model).
