Abstract
African American women are disproportionately affected by type 2 diabetes. Genetic factors may explain part of the excess risk. More than 100 genetic variants have been associated with risk of type 2 diabetes, but most studies have been conducted in white populations. Two genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in African Americans have identified three novel genetic variants only. We conducted admixture mapping using 2918 ancestral informative...
