Amerind Ancestry, Socioeconomic Status and the Genetics of Type 2 Diabetes in a Colombian Population
The “thrifty genotype” hypothesis proposes that the high prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Native Americans and admixed Latin Americans has a genetic basis and reflects an evolutionary adaptation to a past low calorie/high exercise lifestyle. However, identification of the gene variants underpi...
