ABSTRACT
Thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) plays an important role in glucose metabolism, and its expression is regulated by DNA methylation (DNAm). Although the association between TXNIP DNAm and type 2 diabetes mellitus has been demonstrated in studies with a cross-sectional design, prospective studies are needed. We therefore examined the association between TXNIP DNAm levels and longitudinal changes in glycemic traits by conducting a longitudinal study involving 169 subjects who underwent two health checkups in 2015 and 2019. We used a pyrosequencing assay to determine TXNIP DNAm levels in leukocytes (cg19693031). Logistic regression analyses were performed to assess the associations between dichotomized TXNIP DNAm levels and marked increases in glycemic traits. At four years, the TXNIP DNA hypomethylation group had a higher percentage of changes in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) compared to those in the hypermethylation group. The adjusted odds ratios for FPG and HbA1c levels were significantly higher in the TXNIP DNA hypomethylation group than in the hypermethylation group. We found that TXNIP DNA hypomethylation at baseline was associated with a marked increase in glycemic traits. Leukocyte TXNIP DNAm status could potentially be used as an early biomarker for impaired glucose homeostasis.
