The same sequence variant on 9p21 associates with myocardial infarction, abdominal aortic aneurysm and intracranial aneurysm
Recently, two common sequence variants on 9p21, tagged by rs10757278-G and rs10811661-T, were reported to be associated with coronary artery disease (CAD)1,2,3,4 and type 2 diabetes (T2D)5,6,7, respectively. We p...

Protein-altering variants associated with body mass index implicate pathways that control energy intake and expenditure in obesity
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified >250 loci for body mass index (BMI), implicating pathways related to neuronal biology. Most GWAS loci represent clusters of common, noncoding variants fro...
