Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Obesity is an important risk factor for Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) as approximately 90% of T2D patients are obese. The single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs4607103 (C˃T) in the ADAMTS9 gene and rs7578597 (T˃C) in the THADA gene were identified as two novel T2D risk loci. However, studies investigating the associations of these variants with T2D and obesity are limited, and little is known about the...
