Prior reports have suggested that variants in the genes for maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) may confer susceptibility to type 2 diabetes, but results have been conflicting and coverage of the MODY genes has been incomplete. To complement our previous studies of HNF4A, we examined the other five known MODY genes for association with type 2 diabetes in Finnish individuals. For each of...
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease in the Western world, and encompasses a spectrum from simple steatosis to steatohepatitis (NASH). There is currently no approved pharmacologic therapy against NASH, partly due to an incomplete understanding of its molecular basis. The goal of this study was to determine the key differentially expressed genes (DEG...
We are grateful for the opportunity to respond to the comments of Toker and Pavlidis (1) regarding our recent publication, in which hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha (HNF4A) and polypyrimidine tract binding protein 1 (PTBP1) mRNAs are identified as potential blood biomarkers for Parkinson’s disease (PD) (2). Early diagnosis of PD remains challenging. Contrary to what the authors suggest, we are...
OBJECTIVE Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the P2 promoter region of HNF4A were originally shown to be associated with predisposition for type 2 diabetes in Finnish, Ashkenazi, and, more recently, Scandinavian populations, but they generated conflicting results in additional populations. We aimed to investigate whether data from a large-scale mapping approach would replicate this assoc...
BACKGROUND Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is a clinically heterogeneous condition. Mutations in eight genes (ABCC8, KCNJ11, GLUD1, GCK, HADH, SLC16A1, HNF4A and HNF1A) are known to cause CHI. AIM To characterise the clinical and molecular aspects of a large cohort of patients with CHI. METHODOLOGY Three hundred patients were recruited and clinical information was collected before genotypi...
The transcription of individual genes is determined by combinatorial interactions between DNA-binding transcription factors. The current challenge is to understand how such combinatorial interactions regulate broad genetic programs that underlie cellular functions and disease. The transcription factors Hnf1alpha and Hnf4alpha control pancreatic islet beta-cell function and growth, and mutations...
Association between elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) serum levels and subclinical atherosclerosis and cardiovascular (CV) events was described in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). CRP, HNF1A, LEPR, GCKR, NLRP3, IL1F10, PPP1R3B, ASCL1, HNF4A and SALL1 exert an influence on elevated CRP serum levels in non-rheumatic Caucasians. Consequently, we evaluated the potential role of these genes in the develop...
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that promote the progression of cancer by negatively regulating gene expression. Down-regulation of miR-483-5p was reported in a number of cancers. However, the biological functions of miR-483-5p in esophageal squamous cell carcinomas are not fully understood. In this study, the expression levels of miRNAs in the immortalized human esophageal epithel...
BACKGROUND Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a subgroup of monogenic diabetes mellitus, of which MODY1, caused by HNF4A mutations, accounts for only 5% or less and has been rarely reported in East Asian countries. Here we report two novel HNF4A mutations in two Japanese families with MODY1. METHODS Proband 1 is an 8-year-old girl and proband 2 is a 14-year-old girl. Both were non...
