Fine-mapping of an expanded set of type 2 diabetes loci to single-variant resolution using high-density imputation and islet-specific epigenome maps

TL;DR: Increase in sample size and variant diversity deliver enhanced discovery and single-variant resolution of causal T2D-risk alleles, and the consequent impact on mechanistic insights and clinical translation is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

A MUTYH germline mutation is associated with small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors.

TL;DR: The results suggest that p.(Gly396Asp) in MUTYH, and potentially other mutations in additional members of the same DNA excision-repair pathway (such as the OGG1 gene) might be involved in driving the tumorigenesis leading to familial and sporadic SI-NETs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic predictors of testosterone and their associations with cardiovascular disease and risk factors: A Mendelian randomization investigation.

TL;DR: Sex hormone-related mechanisms appear to be relevant to cardiovascular risk factors and for stroke (particularly for men), however, the extent that these findings are specifically informative about endogenous testosterone or testosterone supplementation is unclear.
