Author contact details

Table 2. GLUT1 susceptibility alleles for diabetic nephropathya
Study Diabetes Race, country Patient numbers: controls versus diabetics GLUT1 SNPb Association of SNP with nephropathy
Gutierrez et al. (Ref. 78) Type 2 Caucasian, Spain 100 vs 20 XbaI No
Liu et al. (Ref. 74) Type 2 Asian, China 45 vs 64 XbaI Yes
Grzeszczak et al. (Ref. 75) Type 2 Caucasian, Poland 162 vs 132 XbaI Yes
Hodgkinson et al. (Ref. 73) Type 1 Caucasian, UK 44 vs 70 XbaI Yes
Tarnow et al. (Ref. 79) Type 1 Caucasian, Denmark 192 vs 175 XbaI No
Ng et al. (Ref. 76) Type 1 Caucasian, USA 207 vs 249 XbaI
Enh2SNP1
Yes
Yes
Hodgkinson et al. (Ref. 22) Type 1 Caucasian, UK 101 vs 288 A–2841T Yes

a Diabetic nephropathy was defined in these studies as persistent albuminuria or chronic renal failure.
b XbaI and Enh2SNP1 polymorphisms are located in intron 2; the A–2841T polymorphism is located in the promoter.
