The impact of PNPLA3 and JAZF1 on hepatocellular carcinoma in non-viral hepatitis patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is an established independent risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). T2DM is associated with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which is a major cause of non-HBV and non-HCV-related HCC; nevertheless, it has been difficult to identify those pati...

Zusammenfassung: | Background
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is an established independent risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). T2DM is associated with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which is a major cause of non-HBV and non-HCV-related HCC; nevertheless, it has been difficult to identify those patients with T2DM who have a high risk of developing HCC. The aim of this study was to identify genetic determinants that predispose T2DM patients to HCC by genotyping T2DM susceptibility loci and
PNPLA3
.
Methods
We recruited 389 patients with T2DM who satisfied the following three criteria: negative for HBs-Ag and anti-HCV Ab, alcohol intake 10 years. These patients were divided into two groups: T2DM patients with HCC (DM–HCC,
n
= 59) or those without HCC (DM–non-HCC,
n
= 330). We genotyped 51 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) previously reported as T2DM or NASH susceptibility loci (
PNPLA
3) compared between the DM-HCC and DM-non-HCC groups with regard to allele frequencies at each SNP.
Results
The SNP rs738409 located in
PNPLA3
was the greatest risk factor associated with HCC. The frequency of the
PNPLA3
G allele was significantly higher among DM–HCC individuals than DM–non-HCC individuals (OR 2.53,
p
= 1.05 × 10
−5
). Among individuals homozygous for the
PNPLA
3 G allele (
n
= 115), the frequency of the
JAZF1
rs864745 G allele was significantly higher among DM–HCC individuals than DM–non-HCC individuals (OR 3.44,
p
= 0.0002).
Conclusions
PNPLA3
and
JAZF1
were associated with non-HBV and non-HCV-related HCC development among Japanese patients with T2DM. |
