Genome-wide Pleiotropy Analysis Reveals Shared Genetic Associations between Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Subcortical Brain Volumes
1 Jan 2025
Abstract excerpt
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), a prevalent metabolic disorder marked by insulin resistance and hyperglycemia, has been linked to volumetric changes in subcortical regions, yet the genetic basis of this relationship remains unclear. We analyzed genome-wide association study summary data for T2DM and 14 subcortical volumetric traits, using MiXeR to quantify shared genetic architecture and applying...
