APOE and type 2 diabetes mellitus: The BF% increasing allele of rs6857 near TOMM40/APOE issignificantly associated with increased overall adiposity (BMI), abdominaladiposity (WHRadjBMI), visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and liver fatstorage, which may be mediating the nominally significant association withincreased fasting glucose and risk of T2D (Table 2 andSupplementary Table 13).However, most notably, the BF% increasing allele was also highlysignificantly associated with a favourable lipid profile and reduced risk of CAD(Table 2 and Supplementary Table 12).
