The Type 2 Diabetes–Associated Gene Ide Is Required for Insulin Secretion and Suppression of α-Synuclein Levels in β-Cells

Genome-wide association studies have identified several type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk loci linked to impaired β-cell function. The identity and function of the causal genes in these susceptibility loci remain, however, elusive. The HHEX/IDE T2D locus is associated with decreased insulin secretion in re...
