Research Abstract |
By a genome-wide association study (GWAS) using 100,000 SNPs, we identified KCNQ1 as a novel susceptibility gene for type 2 diabetes mellitus, and performed functional analysis. This turned out to be one of the most important genetic factors in multiple ethnic groups. We also examined other genetic factors for diabetes and found that risk allele frequencies of the SNPs are variable among populations. Furthermore, we reported that the prediction power of all the susceptibility SNPs combined is not sufficient, indicating the existence of unknown genetic factors. We also reported novel diabetes-related genes by candidate gene and candidate region approaches.
