Abstract:
|
We developed a multinomial probit model with singular value decomposition for testing a large number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) simultaneously, using maximum likelihood estimation and permutation. Validation was by simulation (1000 SNPs) including 9 associated with disease states, and 8 of the 9 were successfully identified. Applying the method to study 32 genes available in our Mexican-American samples for association with prediabetes through either impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or impaired fasting glucose (IFG), we found 3 genes (SORCS1,AMPD1,PPARa) associated with both IGT and IFG, while 5 genes (AMPD2,PRKAA2,C5,TCF7L2,ITR) with the IGT mechanism only and 6 genes (CAPN10,IL4,NOS3,CD14,GCG,SORT1) with the IFG mechanism only. These data suggest that IGT and IFG may indicate different physiological mechanism to prediabetes, via different genetic determinants.
