Interestingly, the best-associated SNP in four of the 18 genes were among the 43 already validated loci of susceptibility for T2D, which in the former reports were assigned to ZBED3, BCL11A, PRC1, and KCNJ11 genes, based only in proximity [34], [36], [37]. This evidence concerns the gene ZBED3 and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
