Type 2 diabetes genetics in 125,000 admixed adults from Mexico City

Jason Torres, Jaime Berumen-Campos, Diego J. Aguilar-Ramirez…·Roberto Tapia‐Conyer

This study identifies 86 T2D GWAS associations in 125,000 admixed Mexican adults, including 21 novel signals, and highlights the role of common regulatory variation in the endocrine pancreas.

Direct effect of genetic ancestry on complex traits in a Mexican population

Siqi Wang, Jaime Berumen-Campos, Alejandra Vergara-Lope…·Peter M. Visscher

The paper estimates direct effects of genetic ancestry on complex traits in a Mexican population using family-based analyses and finds significant associations for height and type 2 diabetes but not for educational attainment.
