Association of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus With Dietary Vitamin B12 Intake in Individuals With Different Fat Mass and Obesity-Associated (FTO) Genotypes. [PDF]
Food Sci NutrHigher dietary vitamin B12 intake was inversely associated with the odds of type 2 diabetes mellitus among individuals carrying the TT genotype of the FTO rs9939609 polymorphism. These findings highlight the potential role of precision nutrition strategies in diabetes prevention.

Exploring the Association of FTO rs9939609 with Type 2 Diabetes, Fasting Glucose and HbA1c in a Southeastern Mexican Region of Predominant Mayan Genetic Background [PDF]
BiomoleculesType 2 diabetes (T2D) is a multifactorial disease characterized by chronic hyperglycemia. The FTO variant rs9939609 has been widely associated with obesity, but emerging evidence suggests a broader role for T2D risk across diverse populations.
