Genetic variants of 11 telomere-pathway gene loci and the risk of incident type 2 diabetes mellitus: the Women's Genome Health Study.

Atherosclerosis - 1 Sept 2011

Zee Robert Y L, Ridker Paul M, Chasman Daniel I

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Leukocyte telomere length shortening has recently been associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Whether this observation was modulated by genetic variation within the telomere-pathway genes remains elusive. To date, no prospective epidemiological data on the relationship of telomere-pathway gene variation with T2D are available. METHODS: The association between 150 tagging-SNPs (tSNPs) of 11...
