Low-frequency and rare exome chip variants associate with fasting glucose and type 2 diabetes susceptibility

Jennifer Wessel, +202 more
TL;DR: In this article, the role of coding variation on intermediate traits for type 2 diabetes was explored by analysis of variants on the HumanExome BeadChip in 60,564 non-diabetic individuals and in 16,491 T2D cases and 81,877 controls.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic evidence that raised sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) levels reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes

John R. B. Perry, +58 more
TL;DR: Evidence is added that SHBG and sex hormones are involved in the aetiology of type 2 diabetes, and a common single nucleotide polymorphism near the SHBG gene, rs1799941, that is strongly associated with SHBG levels is selected.
Journal ArticleDOI

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Is Associated with a Variant in Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor-Related Protein 1

Morris J. Bown, +507 more
TL;DR: This study has identified a biologically plausible genetic variant associated specifically with AAA, and it is suggested that this variant has a possible functional role in LRP1 expression.
