ABSTRACT New-onset diabetes after transplantation is a common complication that reduces recipient survival. Research in renal transplant recipients has suggested that pancreatic b-cell dysfunction, as opposed to insulin resistance, may be the key pathologic process. In this study, clinical and genetic factors associated with new-onset diabetes after transplantation were identified in a white population. A joint analysis ap- proach, with an initial genome-wide association study in a subset of cases followed by de novo genotyping in the complete case cohort, was implemented to identify single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) asso- ciated with the development of new-onset diabetes after transplantation. Clinical variables associated with the development of diabetes after renal transplantation included older recipient age, female sex, and percentage weight gain within 12 months of transplantation. The genome-wide association study identi- fied 26 SNPs associated with new-onset diabetes after transplantation; this association was validated for eight SNPs (rs10484821, rs7533125, rs2861484, rs11580170, rs2020902, rs1836882, rs198372, and rs4394754) by de novo genotyping. These associations remained significant after multivariate adjustment for clinical variables. Seven of these SNPs are associated with implicated in b-cell apoptosis. These results corroborate recent clinical evidence implicating b-cell dysfunction in the pathophysiology of new- onset diabetes after transplantation and support the pursuit of therapeutic strategies to protect b cells in the post-transplant period.

This is the first exploratory GWAS to be undertaken for NODAT.

Glucose-Stimulated Insulin Secretion Hyperglycemia upregulates Fas receptor expression on the b cell surface (Figure 3); initially, this promotes cell prolifer- ation and insulin secretion.63,64 The SNP rs4394754 is upstream from the 59-untranslated region of INPP5A. The inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases are implicated in in- sulin signaling and exocytosis and inhibit the proliferation of insulin-producing cells in vitro.56,57,65 Hyperglycemia stimulatesATP generation in mitochondria, causing membrane depolarization, calcium ion influx, and increased insulin exocytosis.63,66

Table 3: Association results for de novo genotyped SNPs with NODAT in the original discovery cohort and in the new cases from the second stage genotyping cohort

This table displays the odds ratios and p values for SNPs previously reported to be associated with

NODAT and newly identified associations from the discovery GWAS in the cohort typed as part of the

GWAS (ORdiscovery and pdiscovery) and in the new cases genotyped in the second stage genotyping

(ORnew and pnew). The overall odds ratios and p values from the second stage genotyping are recorded in Table 4. The failure of the p values to reach statistical significance in the new cases during second stage genotyping reflects the much smaller number of samples typed.

Regional association plots highlighting the genomic context and local significance values for all SNPs selected for second stage genotyping, Initially the SNPs identified from the GWAS and secondly, those previously reported to be associated with NODAT. Each circle represents a SNP; with proximal SNPs to the index SNP color coded according to linkage disequilibrium based on HapMap Phase II CEU reference data (Plotted SNPs). Known functional SNPs are indicated with symbols other than filled circles. Blue lines indicate the recombination rate

(cM/Mb).
