Our discovery GWAS in 1,616 individuals (842 case subjects) was followed by in silico ... -
Genome-wide association study of 25(OH) Vitamin D concentrations in Punjabi Sikhs: Results of the Asian Indian diabetic heart study
Sapkota, B.R.; Hopkins, R.; Bjonnes, A.; Ralhan, S.; Wander, G.S.; Mehra, N.K.; Singh, J.R.; Blackett, P.R.; Saxena, R.; Sanghera, D.K. (Elsevier Ltd, 2016)Vitamin D deficiency is implicated in multiple disease conditions and accumulating evidence supports that the variation in serum vitamin D (25(OH)D) levels, including deficiency, is under strong genetic control. However, ... -
A low frequency variant within the GWAS locus of MTNR1B affects fasting glucose concentrations: Genetic risk is modulated by obesity
Been, L.F.; Hatfield, J.L.; Shankar, A.; Aston, C.E.; Ralhan, S.; Wander, G.S.; Mehra, N.K.; Singh, J.R.; Mulvihill, J.J.; Sanghera, D.K. (2012)Two common variants (rs1387153, rs10830963) in MTNR1B have been reported to have independent effects on fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels with increased risk to type 2 diabetes (T2D) in recent genome-wide association ... -
PPARG and ADIPOQ gene polymorphisms increase type 2 diabetes mellitus risk in Asian Indian Sikhs: Pro12Ala still remains as the strongest predictor
Sanghera, D.K.; Demirci, F.Y.; Been, L.; Ortega, L.; Ralhan, S.; Wander, G.S.; Mehra, N.K.; Singh, J.; Aston, C.E.; Mulvihill, J.J.; Kamboh, I.M. (2010)We have examined the association of 14 tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (tagSNPs) in peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-? transcripts 1 and 2 (PPARG1 and 2) and 5 tagSNPs in adiponectin (ADIPOQ) genes for ... -
Variants in KCNQ1 increase type II diabetes susceptibility in South Asians: A study of 3,310 subjects from India and the US
Been, L.F.; Ralhan, S.; Wander, G.S.; Mehra, N.K.; Singh, J.; Mulvihill, J.J.; Aston, C.E.; Sanghera, D.K. (2011)Background: Polymorphisms in intron 15 of potassium voltage-gated channel, KQT-like subfamily member 1 (KCNQ1) gene have been associated with type II diabetes (T2D) in Japanese genome-wide association studies (GWAS).
