In a different study involving 326 participants (101 subjects with type 1 diabetes, 100 subjects with type 2 diabetes, and 125 healthy subjects), the study examined the correlation between Glo-1 activity in whole-blood lysates and the same SNP in GLO1 rs2736654, along with two other frequent SNPs, rs1130534 (G124G) and rs1049346 (5′-UTR). Here, GLO1 is linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus.
