| Abstract: | Introduction: Chromosome 12q23-q24 has been linked to triglyceride levels by linkage studies, and it contains the Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) gene. However, association between IGF1 and triglyceride levels was not well investigated and remained unclear. Materials and Methods: We investigated the association between IGF1 and triglyceride levels by using two independent samples collected in Taiwan: the fi rst sample consists of 954 siblings in 397 families from the Stanford Asian Paci fi c Program in Hypertension and Insulin Resistance (SAPPHIRe); the second sample consists of 13,193 unrelated subjects from the Taiwan biobank (TWB) project. Five tag single-nucleotide polymorphisms (tagSNPs) within IGF1 were analyzed. Results: First, based on the SAPPHIRe sample, we found that one IGF1 tag-SNP was associated with triglyceride levels ( β = -0.049, p = 0.0043). Then, subset analyses in the TWB sample showed that this association appeared in subjects with a family history (FH) of hypertension ( β = -0.045, p = 0.0000034), but not in subjects without an FH (p = 0.61). A re-examination of the SAPPHIRe sample con fi rmed that this association appeared in subjects with an FH of hypertension ( β = -0.068, p = 0.0025), but not in subjects without an FH (p = 0.32). Conclusions: The successful replication in two independent samples indicated that IGF1 is associated with triglyceride levels in subjects with an FH of hypertension in Taiwan. This study was supported by the National Health Research Institutes (PH-104-PP03, PH-105-PP03, PH-106-PP03), the Taipei Medical University (TMU101-AE1-B67), and the Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST 106-2314-B-038-052-MY3) in Taiwan. |
