Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Neighboring genes PIK3CA and KCNMB3 are both important for insulin signaling and β-cell function, but their associations with glucose-related traits are unclear. OBJECTIVE: The objective was to examine associations of PIK3CA-KCNMB3 variants with glucose-related traits and potential interaction with dietary fat. DESIGN: We first investigated genetic associations and their modulation by dietary fat in...
