Abstract
The frequency of ANGPTL8 R59W is significantly higher in Japanese subjects than in other ethnic groups. The rates of T2D and IGT were greater in subjects with the R59W variant. These findings indicate that ANGPTL8 is a participant in diabetes and a potential therapeutic target for T2D prevention, especially in East Asians.
