Population-specific risk of type 2 diabetes conferred by HNF4A P2 promoter variants: a lesson for replication studies.
OBJECTIVE: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the P2 promoter region of HNF4A were originally shown to be associated with predisposition for type 2 diabetes in Finnish, Ashkenazi, and, more recently, Scandinavian populations, but they generated conflicting results in additional populations. W...
