Abstract excerpt
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: A meta-analysis of 21 genome-wide association studies identified 11 novel genetic loci implicated in fasting glucose homeostasis. We aimed to evaluate the impact of these variants on insulin release and insulin sensitivity estimated from OGTTs. METHODS: Eleven variants in or near DGKB/TMEM195, ADCY5, MADD, ADRA2A, FADS1, CRY2, SLC2A2, GLIS3, PROX1, C2CD4B and IGF1 were genotyped in 6,784...
