Identification of putative biomarkers for type 2 diabetes using metabolomics in the Korea Association REsource (KARE) cohort

ConclusionUsing a targeted-metabolomics and in combination with GWAS approach, we identified three serum metabolites associated with risk of T2D in both the KARE and KORA cohort and discovered ten genetic variants in relation to the identified metabolites. These findings provide a better understanding to develop novel preventive strategies for T2D in the Korean population.
