ABSTRACT
Populations with Amerindian or African heritages are the one
with the highest prevalence of diabetes worldwide. A large percentage
of these individuals survived famine. However, the
survival effect has become detrimental to their descendents
living in an environment of caloric surplus. In countries, like
Mexico and Jamaica, in which diabetes is highly prevalent, the
onset of the disease happens at earlier ages. Our objective is
to summarize diabetes data from Mexico and Jamaica and to
discuss the opportunities that can result from an interethnic
study. On one hand, the prevalence of diabetes in Jamaica is
17.9% in the 15+ age group. Jamaican researchers have built
a cohort of families with early onset type 2 diabetes. In this
population, this form of the disease is unrelated to MODY
genes. On the other hand, the prevalence of diabetes in adult
Mexicans is 14.4%. The group in which the greater percentual
changes have occurred is the adults who are below the age of
40. More than two thirds of the early onset cases studied have
a body mass index that is › 25 kg/m
2 and the clinical characteristics
of metabolic syndrome. A minority of them has mutations
in the MODY genes. The joint study of Mexican and
Jamaican cohorts of early onset type 2 diabetes cases will be
useful to identify new genetic and environmental players in
the pathogenesis of this entity
