The research group at the Institute for Molecular Medicine Finland (FIMM) has revealed eleven new genetic regions associated with the blood levels of the metabolites, including new loci affecting well-established risk markers for cardiovascular disease and potential biomarkers for type 2 diabetes. The findings may help in elucidating the processes leading to common diseases. The study will be published in Nature Genetics.
