Complete loss of<i>SLC30A8</i>in humans improves glucose metabolism and beta cell function

2024-04-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Genetic association studies have demonstrated that partial loss of SLC30A8 function protects against type 2 diabetes (T2D) in humans, but the impact of complete loss of SLC30A8 function remains unknown. From whole-exome and genome sequencing of 100,814 participants in the Pakistan Genome Resource, we identified fifteen SLC30A8 knockouts, including homozygotes for a variant enriched in South Asian...
