Abstract excerpt
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is the result of metabolic defects in insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity, yet most T2D loci identified to date influence insulin secretion. We hypothesized that T2D loci, particularly those affecting insulin sensitivity, can be identified through interaction with known T2D loci implicated in insulin secretion. To test this hypothesis, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) nominally...
