Modelling genetic risk of β-cell dysfunction in human induced pluripotent stem cells from patients carrying the <i>MTNR1B</i> risk variant

2024-07-22

Abstract excerpt

Disruptions in circadian rhythm, partly controlled by the hormone melatonin, increase the risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Accordingly, a variant of the gene encoding the melatonin receptor 1B ( MTNR1B ) is robustly associated with increased risk of T2D. This single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP; rs10830963; G-allele) is an expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) in human pancreatic islets, conferring increased e...
