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

Anubha Mahajan, +131 more
- 08 Oct 2018 - 
TL;DR: Combining 32 genome-wide association studies with high-density imputation provides a comprehensive view of the genetic contribution to type 2 diabetes in individuals of European ancestry with respect to locus discovery, causal-variant resolution, and mechanistic insight.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of type 2 diabetes loci in 433,540 East Asian individuals

Cassandra N. Spracklen, +132 more
- 11 Jun 2020 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of genome-wide association study data from 77,418 individuals of East Asian ancestry with type 2 diabetes identifies novel variants associated with increased risk of type 2abetes in both East Asian and European populations.

Cassandra N. Spracklen, +111 more
- 28 Jun 2019 -

Trans-ancestry genetic study of type 2 diabetes highlights the power of diverse populations for discovery and translation

Anubha Mahajan, +245 more
- 23 Sep 2020 - 
TL;DR: Improved fine-mapping enabled systematic assessment of candidate causal genes and molecular mechanisms through which T2D associations are mediated, laying foundations for functional investigations.
