Abstract excerpt
Clinical studies in type 2 diabetes (T2D) primarily focused on the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located in protein-coding regions. Recently, the SNPs located in noncoding regions have also been recognized to play an important role in disease susceptibility. The super enhancer is a cluster of transcriptional enhancers located in noncoding regions. It plays a critical role in cell-type specific gene...
