    Objective: Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) is a key enzyme in the
    mobilization of fatty acids from triglyceride stores in adipocytes.  The
    aim of the present study was to investigate the role of the HSL gene
    promoter variant C-60G, a polymorphism which previously has been
    associated with reduced promoter activity in vitro, in obesity and type 2
    diabetes.Design: We genotyped two materials consisting of obese subjects
    and non-obese controls, one material with offspring-parents trios, where
    the offspring was abdominally obese and one material with trios, where the
    offspring had type 2 diabetes or impaired glucose homeostasis.  HSL
    promoter containing the HSL C-60G G-allele was generated and tested
    against a construct with the C-allele in HeLa cells and primary rat
    adipocytes.  HSL mRNA levels were quantified in subcutaneous and
    visceral fat from 33 obese subjects.Results: We found that the common
    C-allele was associated with increased waist circumference and WHR in lean
    controls, but there was no difference in genotype frequency between obese
    and non-obese subjects.  There was a significant increased transmission of
    C-alleles to the abdominally obese offspring but no increased transmission
    of C-alleles was observed to offspring with impaired glucose homeostasis.
    The G-allele showed reduced transcription in HeLa cells and primary rat
    adipocytes.  HSL mRNA levels were significantly higher in subcutaneous
    compared to visceral fat from obese subjects.Conclusion: The HSL C-60G
    polymorphism is associated with increased waist circumference in non-obese
    subjects.
