Lipids and T2D: The BFPAdj increasing alleles of rs62271373 (Chr3:150,066,540; A>T; TSC22D2), rs9641894 (Chr7:130,465,054; G>T; KLF14), and rs12454712 (Chr18:60,845,884; C>T; BCL2) were associated with reduced T2D risk, higher HDL and lower TG (Table 2, Figure 5A). This evidence concerns the gene TSC22D2 and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
