The illuminating picture of genetic mechanisms underlying the development of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) includes differently accumulated genetic polymorphisms that increase the risk along with environmental factors. A number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are indicated to be linked with T2DM, but also conflicting results have been found. To examine the contribution of these polymorphisms in conferring susceptibility to T2DM, the association of HHEX rs1111875A/G and CDKN2A/B rs10811661C/T common gene polymorphisms with the risk of T2DM in an Iranian population was evaluated. In this study participated 140 patients and 140 controls. Genomic DNA was extracted from samples and genotyping of the polymorphisms was performed by the Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) technique. A significant association was found with the G allele (OR = 1.729, CI = 1.184-2.523, P = 0.004) and GG genotype (OR = 2.921, 95% CI = 1.789-4.771, P < 0.001) of the rs1111875A/G SNP for susceptibility to T2DM in the recessive model. Furthermore, compared with the GG genotype, individuals with the GA genotype had a lower risk to develop T2DM (OR = 0.237, 95% CI = 0.137-0.408, P< 0.001) in the additive model. In addition, an association between the polymorphism and BMI in regard to the risk of T2DM was identified. The genotype and allele frequencies of the rs10811661C/T polymorphism did not show a statistically significant association with T2DM in any genetic model. Our results show that the rs1111875A/G polymorphism is an important susceptibility polymorphism for the development of T2DM in the Iranian population. Also, these findings support that this polymorphism is a key genetic risk factor for the development of T2DM in multiple ethnic populations.
