Abstract
- This study is the first to evaluate familial aggregation, heritability and inheritance mode of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Tehran Lipid Glucose Study (TLGS) participants as a representative sample of the Iranian population.From the ongoing family-based TLGS cohort, 13,741 individuals at least 20 years of age (mean ± standard deviation, 39.71±16.56) were assessed. After correcting family structures using genomic information from the Tehran Cardiometabolic Genetic Study, 2,594 constituent pedigrees were constructed. Familial aggregation was assessed based on genealogic index testing, familial intraclass correlation and positive family history. Family-based heritability was checked with 2 linear mixed models, including 2 different random components: the kinship matrix and the genomic relationship matrix. The mode of inheritance of T2D was investigated by complex segregation analysis (CSA).Familial aggregation of T2D was significant (p0.05), and family-based heritability showed a high degree of genetic variation in T2D between individuals at 65% (standard error, 0.034). Within first-degree relatives (parent/offspring and siblings), the likelihood of a parental affect was higher than in siblings (odds ratio, 4.11 vs 1.65). Family history of T2D among first-degree relatives was more noteworthy than for second-degree relatives (odds ratio, 3.84 vs 0.59). CSA revealed that the polygenic model is best to illustrate the mode of inheritance of T2D for TLGS participants.Our findings demonstrate that the heritability of T2D with polygenic mode in the Iranian population is higher than the global average. We also found that T2D is transmitted equally into siblings, with parental affect the leading risk factor. These data suggest that policymakers should change individual-level to family-level prevention.
