Genomic data set on Type 2 Diabetes in African-Americans derived via admixture mapping, a method for genome-wide association analysis based on admixture-generated linkage disequilibrium. This collaborative group has identified 1,478 African Americans with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) from the Jackson Heart Study and Multiethnic Cohort Study, as well as 498 controls from the Jackson Heart Study who are normoglycemic despite high body mass index and older age. All samples were genotyped (using the Illumina BeadLab platform) for 1,291 polymorphic markers chosen to be extremely different in frequency between west Africans and European Americans. Evidence for association to diabetes at each marker as reported by the ANCESTRYMAP software are reported in the downloadable table. They calculate that this study has statistical power to detect loci where African or European ancestry on average confers multiplicative increased risk of 1.35-fold or more. The fact that they did not detect a statistically significant signal of association in the scan suggests that any genetic risk factors for T2D do not confer different risks due to ancestry that differ by this factor. The genome scan results are publicly available (Excel file) prior to publication so that researchers interested in the genetics of T2D can use the results of the scan to prioritize follow-up of any regions of interest.

Observational clinical trial studying the long term effect of diet and exercise and the diabetes medication, metformin, on the delay of type 2 diabetes in participants of the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP). The Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) was a multi-center trial examining the ability of an intensive lifestyle or metformin to prevent or delay the development of diabetes in a high risk population due to the presence of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). The DPP has ended early demonstrating that lifestyle reduced diabetes onset by 58% and metformin reduced diabetes onset by 31%. The DPPOS is designed to take advantage of the scientifically and clinically valuable DPP participants. This group of participants is nearly 50% minority and represents the largest IGT population ever studied. Clinically important research questions remain that focus on 1)durability of the prior DPP intervention, 2) determination of the clinical course of precisely known new onset diabetes, in particular regarding CVD, CVD risk factors and atherosclerosis and microvascular disease, 3)close examination of these topics in men vs women and in minority populations. More than 87% of the original surviving DPP cohort has joined DPPOS as of December, 2007 and, to date, after 5 years of DPPOS and 10 years of combined DPP/DPPOS, 93% of the DPPOS cohort continue to attend annual follow-up visits. Interim analyses performed after 5 years of DPPOS have demonstrated a durable effect of diabetes prevention associated with the lifestyle and metformin interventions with 34 and 19% reductions in diabetes incidence, respectively, compared with the placebo group. Interim analyses also reveal significant reductions from baseline in CVD risk factors in the lifestyle intervention group, but with decreased utilization of glucose-lowering and lipid-lowering medications. Analyses of the participants in the placebo group who have developed diabetes during DPP/DPPOS, compared with those who have remained non-diabetic, reveal an increased frequency of retinopathy and microalbuminuria. The current, updated protocol describes the DPPOS including the revisions incorporated to complete the second five-years of the study. DPPOS participants have blood samples stored at the time of each annual visit. Specimens are stored at the study CBL until after the primary study outcomes are reported. DNA samples were previously collected and are stored at the NIDDKsample repository for DPP participants.

Genetic variations associated with type 1 diabetes identified by sequencing regions of the non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse genome and comparing them with the same areas of a diabetes-resistant C57BL/6J reference mouse allowing identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or other genomic variations putatively associated with diabetes in mice. Finished clones from the targeted insulin-dependent diabetes (Idd) candidate regions are displayed in the NOD clone sequence section of the website, where they can be downloaded either as individual clone sequences or larger contigs that make up the accession golden path (AGP). All sequences are publicly available via the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration. Two NOD mouse BAC libraries were constructed and the BAC ends sequenced. Clones from the DIL NOD BAC library constructed by RIKEN Genomic Sciences Centre (Japan) in conjunction with the Diabetes and Inflammation Laboratory (DIL) (University of Cambridge) from the NOD/MrkTac mouse strain are designated DIL. Clones from the CHORI-29 NOD BAC library constructed by Pieter de Jong (Children's Hospital, Oakland, California, USA) from the NOD/ShiLtJ mouse strain are designated CHORI-29. All NOD mouse BAC end-sequences have been submitted to the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Consortium (INSDC), deposited in the NCBI trace archive. They have generated a clone map from these two libraries by mapping the BAC end-sequences to the latest assembly of the C57BL/6J mouse reference genome sequence. These BAC end-sequence alignments can then be visualized in the Ensembl mouse genome browser where the alignments of both NOD BAC libraries can be accessed through the Distributed Annotation System (DAS). The Mouse Genomes Project has used the Illumina platform to sequence the entire NOD/ShiLtJ genome and this should help to position unaligned BAC end-sequences to novel non-reference regions of the NOD genome. Further information about the BAC end-sequences, such as their alignment, variation data and Ensembl gene coverage, can be obtained from the NOD mouse ftp site.
