abstract = {Higher plasma vitamin C levels are associated with lower
type 2 diabetes risk, but whether this association is causal
is uncertain. To investigate this, we studied the
association of genetically predicted plasma vitamin C with
type 2 diabetes.We conducted genome-wide association studies
of plasma vitamin C among 52,018 individuals of European
ancestry to discover novel genetic variants. We performed
Mendelian randomization analyses to estimate the association
of genetically predicted differences in plasma vitamin C
with type 2 diabetes in up to 80,983 case participants and
842,909 noncase participants. We compared this estimate with
the observational association between plasma vitamin C and
incident type 2 diabetes, including 8,133 case participants
and 11,073 noncase participants.We identified 11 genomic
regions associated with plasma vitamin C (P < 5 × 10-8),
with the strongest signal at SLC23A1, and 10 novel genetic
loci including SLC23A3, CHPT1, BCAS3, SNRPF, RER1, MAF,
GSTA5, RGS14, AKT1, and FADS1. Plasma vitamin C was
inversely associated with type 2 diabetes (hazard ratio per
SD 0.88; $95\%$ CI 0.82, 0.94), but there was no association
between genetically predicted plasma vitamin C (excluding
FADS1 variant due to its apparent pleiotropic effect) and
type 2 diabetes (1.03; $95\%$ CI 0.96, 1.10).These findings
indicate discordance between biochemically measured and
genetically predicted plasma vitamin C levels in the
association with type 2 diabetes among European populations.
The null Mendelian randomization findings provide no strong
evidence to suggest the use of vitamin C supplementation for
type 2 diabetes prevention.},
