BACKGROUND Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs7903146 and rs12255372 located within TCF7L2 gene have been identified as the strongest common genetic risk factors for development of type 2 diabetes (T2D). We hypothesized that these genetic variants might increase the risk of T2D through regulation of alternative splicing or expression level of TCF7L2 in human adipose tissue. METHODOLOGY/...
background: the transcription factor 7-like 2 gene (tcf7l2) is an element of the wnt signaling pathway. there is lack of evidence if tcf7l2 has a functional role in lipid metabolism and regulation of the components constitutes the metabolic syndrome (metsyn).the aims of this study were to evaluate whether the risk allele of tcf7l2 gene polymorphism is associated with dyslipidemia and metsyn. ma...
The type 2 diabetes risk gene TCF7L2 is the effector of the Wnt signaling pathway. We found previously that in gut endocrine L-cell lines, TCF7L2 controls transcription of the proglucagon gene (gcg), which encodes the incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). Whereas peripheral GLP-1 stimulates insulin secretion, brain GLP-1 controls energy homeostasis through yet-to-be defined mechanis...
VTI1A-TCF7L2 was reported as a recurrent fusion gene in colorectal cancer (CRC), found to be expressed in three out of 97 primary cancers, and one cell line, NCI-H508, where a genomic deletion joins the two genes [1]. To investigate this fusion further, we analyzed high-throughput DNA and RNA sequencing data from seven CRC cell lines, and identified the gene RP11-57H14.3 (ENSG00000225292) as a ...
Most studies on TCF7L2 SNP variants in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes (T2D) focus on a role of the encoded transcription factor TCF4 in β cells. Here, a mouse genetics approach shows that removal of TCF4 from β cells does not affect their function, whereas manipulating TCF4 levels in the liver has major effects on metabolism. In Tcf7l2(-/-) mice, the immediate postnatal surge in liver meta...
Impaired Wnt signaling pathway plays a crucial role in the development of colorectal cancer through activation of the β-catenin/TCF7L2 complex. Although genes up-regulated by Wnt/β-catenin signaling have been intensively studied, the roles of down-regulated genes are poorly understood. In this study, we explored a global gene expression of colorectal cancer cells transfected with β-catenin siRN...
Noncoding genetic variation in the locus encoding for the Wnt signaling effector TCF7L2 remains the strongest genetic determinant of type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk in humans. This association raises the hypothesis that disease variants alter the quantitative, spatial, and/or temporal expression patterns of this gene. Understanding the mechanisms by which TCF7L2 and Wnt signaling regulate glucose me...
BACKGROUND How canonical Wnt/β-catenin signals in adult hearts, especially in different diseased states, remains unclear. The proto-oncogene, c-Myc, is a Wnt target and an early response gene during cardiac stress. It is not clear whether c-Myc is activated or how it is regulated during heart failure. METHODS AND RESULTS We investigated canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling and how it regulated c...
Non-coding variation within TCF7L2 remains the strongest genetic determinant of type 2 diabetes risk in humans. A considerable effort has been placed in understanding the functional roles of TCF7L2 in pancreatic beta cells, despite evidence of TCF7L2 expression in various peripheral tissues important in glucose homeostasis. Here, we use a humanized mouse model overexpressing Tcf7l2, resulting i...
BACKGROUND The transcription factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2) gene has the strongest genetic association with type 2 diabetes. TCF7L2 also associates with latent autoimmune diabetes in adults, which often presents with a single islet autoantibody, but not with classical type 1 diabetes. METHODS We aimed to test if TCF7L2 is associated with single islet autoantibody expression in pediatric type 1 diab...
