A multitrait GWAS sheds light on insulin resistance.

Nature genetics - 28 Dec 2016

Heid Iris M, Winkler Thomas W

Abstract excerpt

A genome-wide study of fasting insulin, HDL cholesterol and triglycerides, designed to depict insulin resistance, identified 53 independent loci associated with a limited capacity to store fat in a healthy way. The increased power of this multitrait approach provides insights into an otherwise difficult-to-grasp phenotype.
