The E23K Variant of KCNJ11 Encoding the Pancreatic β-Cell Adenosine 5′-Triphosphate-Sensitive Potassium Channel Subunit Kir6.2 Is Associated with an Increased Risk of Secondary Failure to Sulfonylurea in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes

Abstract: These data suggest that the E23K variant in KCNJ11 may influence the variability in the response of patients to sulfonylureas, thus representing an example of pharmacogenetics in type 2 diabetes.

“…Numerous polymorphisms of these genes are reported in association with susceptibility to type 2 diabetes and diabetic phenotypes (5,6,7). These polymorphisms may lead to a loss of activity of potassium channel and to uncontrolled over secretion of insulin (2), as well as modulated response to sulfonylurea therapy (8,9).…”

“…Gloyn et al (3) studied 364 subjects randomized to sulfonylurea therapy in the UK Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS) and determined that the presence of the lysine allele did not predict failure to treatment with sulfonylureas at 1 year. Recently, Sesti et al (15) reported a higher proportion of lysine carriers among 208 subjects who failed sulfonylurea-metformin combination therapy (defined as a rise in fasting plasma glucose Ͼ300 mg/dl); interestingly, islets isolated from lysine carriers showed a diminished insulin response to glyburide.…”

“…Literature on the impact of the KCNJ11 risk variant E23K on treatment response to sulfonylureas is similarly controversial. Whereas E23K associated with an increased risk of secondary failure to sulfonylureas in patients with type 2 diabetes [95], a lack of protection by metformin [96], and diminished repaglinide efficacy [97], in another study, the KCNJ11 risk variant did not affect response to sulfonylurea therapy [98]. Data on the association between SNPs in TCF7L2 and treatment outcome appears to be more consistent.…”
