Other loci strongly associated with T2D include hematopoietically expressed homeobox (HHEX), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARG), solute carrier family 30 (zinc transporter) member 8 (SCL30A8), CDK5 regulatory subunit associated protein 1-like 1 (CDKAL1), and fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) [3–6, 10]. This evidence concerns the gene HHEX and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
