Type 2 diabetes susceptibility loci in the Ashkenazi Jewish population.

Human genetics - 1 Aug 2008

Bronstein Michal, Pisanté Anne, Yakir Benjamin, Darvasi Ariel

Abstract excerpt

Until last year, type 2 diabetes (T2D) susceptibility loci have hardly been identified, despite great effort. Recently, however, several whole-genome association (WGA) studies jointly uncovered 10 robustly replicated loci. Here, we examine these loci in the Ashkenazi Jewish (AJ) population in a sample of 1,131 cases versus 1,147 controls. Genetic predisposition to T2D in the AJ population was found similar to...
