Abstract

A genome-wide study of fasting insulin, HDL cholesterol and triglycerides, designed to depict insulin resistance, identified 53 independent loci associated with a limited capacity to store fat in a healthy way. The increased power of this multitrait approach provides insights into an otherwise difficult-to-grasp phenotype.
