OBJECTIVE The common MTNR1B single nucleotide polymorphism rs10830963 associates with risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Here, we examine the association between this gene variant and the risk of myocardial infarction (MCI) among patients with T2D. MCI is a main cause of death and disability among such individuals. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Data from the UK Biobank cohort were used in order to examine the association between rs10830963 and incidence of MCI (fatal and nonfatal) among 13,655 participants with probable T2D during a follow-up period of 6.8 years. RESULTS Assuming an additive genetic model, a positive association was found between the rs10830963 variant in the MTNR1B gene and the risk for incident MCI during the 6.8-year follow-up (adjusted hazard ratio per G allele 1.19 [95% CI 1.02, 1.40], P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS The rs10830963 polymorphism may be a useful genetic marker for MCI in patients with T2D.
