CDKN2A and type 2 diabetes mellitus: We selected six SNPs for genotyping based on strength of association in previous studies: two associated with atherosclerosis (rs10757278 and rs518394) [1], [2], [3], [4], two with T2DM (rs10811661 and rs564398) [8], [9], [10], one with frailty (rs2811712) [16], and one with melanoma (rs11515, in the 3′ UTR of p16INK4a and ARF)[17] (Fig. 1).
