abstract

  • BACKGROUND: Disco-interacting protein 2 C (DIP2C) has recently been reported as a new susceptibility gene for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in a genome-wide association study. METHODS: We evaluated associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of DIP2C and ASD susceptibility in a case-control study (715 ASD cases and 728 controls) from Chinese Han. RESULTS: We identified a significant association between SNPs (rs3740304, rs2288681, rs7088729, rs4242757, rs10795060, and rs10904083) and ASD susceptibility. Of note, rs3740304, rs2288681, and rs7088729 are positively associated with ASD under inheritance models; moreover, haplotypes with any two marker SNPs (rs3740304 [G], rs2288681 [C], rs7088729 [T], rs4242757 [C], rs10795060 [G], and rs10904083 [A]) are also significantly associated with ASD. Additionally, rs10795060 and rs10904083 are associated with "visual reaction" phenotypes of ASD. CONCLUSIONS: DIP2C polymorphisms sort out the susceptibility and clinical phenotypes of autism spectrum disorder.
