The human Niemann–Pick C1 (NPC1) gene has been found to be associated with extreme (early-onset and morbid-adult) obesity and type 2 diabetes independent of body weight. We previously performed growth studies using BALB/cJ Npc1 normal (Npc1 +/+ ) and Npc1 heterozygous (Npc1 +/− ) mice and determined that decreased Npc1 gene dosage interacts with a high-fat diet to promote weight gain...
Previous studies and replication analyses have linked chromosome 18q21.1–23 with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and its complications, including diabetic nephropathy (DN). Here we investigated the association of POL1-nearby variant rs488846, MALT1-nearby variant rs2874116, MC4R-nearby variant rs1942872, PHLPP rs9958800 and DSEL-nearby variant rs9966483 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the 18q region,...
