Meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies identifies eight new loci for type 2 diabetes in east Asians

Yoon Shin Cho, +72 more
- 01 Jan 2012 - 
TL;DR: The combined analysis identified eight new T2D loci reaching genome-wide significance, which mapped in or near GLIS3, PEPD, FITM2-R3HDML-HNF4A, KCNK16, MAEA, GCC1-PAX4, PSMD6 and ZFAND3, which may regulate glucose-dependent insulin secretion in the pancreas.

Meta-analysis identifies common variants associated with body mass index in east Asians

Wanqing Wen, +71 more
- 01 Mar 2012 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of associations between BMI and approximately 2.4 million SNPs in 27,715 east Asians and three additional loci nearly reached the genome-wide significance threshold may shed light on new pathways involved in obesity and demonstrate the value of conducting genetic studies in non-European populations.

A genome-wide association study in the Japanese population identifies susceptibility loci for type 2 diabetes at UBE2E2 and C2CD4A-C2CD4B

TL;DR: Two new loci at UBE2E2 and C2CD4A-C2 CD4B associated with susceptibility to T2D are identified and replicated in other east Asian populations.
