Type 2 diabetes: new genes, new understanding.

Trends in genetics : TIG - 1 Dec 2008

Prokopenko Inga, McCarthy Mark I, Lindgren Cecilia M

Abstract excerpt

Over the past two years, there has been a spectacular change in the capacity to identify common genetic variants that contribute to predisposition to complex multifactorial phenotypes such as type 2 diabetes (T2D). The principal advance has been the ability to undertake surveys of genome-wide association in large study samples. Through these and related efforts, approximately 20 common variants are now robustly...
