Recent studies showed, that the bone tissue regulates systemic glucose metabolism through the secretion of undercarboxylated osteocalcin (uOCN) into the systemic circulation. It is known, that uOCN binds to the GPRC6A-receptor and, therefore, stimulates insulin expression and secretion in β-cells, as well as increases muscles, liver and adipose tissue sensitivity for insulin. Thus, the thymine to cytosine transition in OCN gene (BGLAP) promoter region (rs1800247) may change the gene expression level and affect T2DM emergence. The aim of the study was to investigate the association between BGLAP rs1800247 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and T2DM development among non-obese Ukrainians. popup.nrat_date 2025-05-12 Close
