A regulatory variant at 3q21.1 confers an increased pleiotropic risk for hyperglycemia and altered bone mineral density

Nasa Sinnott-Armstrong and colleagues identify a pleiotropic risk locus at 3q21 that is associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and greater bone mineral density (BMD) and its associated cell-autonomous mechanisms in adipocytes and osteoblasts. Together, these findings provide a possible explanation fo...
