Association between DNA Methylation in Whole Blood and Measures of Glucose Metabolism: KORA F4 Study.

Epigenetic regulation has been postulated to affect glucose metabolism, insulin sensitivity and the risk of type 2 diabetes. Therefore, we performed an epigenome-wide association study for measures of glucose metabolism in whole blood samples of the population-based Cooperative Health Research in th...
