Genome wide association studies (GWAS) have increased our knowledge of loci associated with a range of human diseases. However, applying such findings to elucidate pathophysiology and promote drug discovery remains challenging. Here, we created isogenic human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) with mutations in GWAS-identified susceptibility genes for type 2 diabetes. In pancreatic betalike cells differentiated from these lines, we found that mutations in CDKAL1, KCNQ1 and KCNJ11 led to impaired glucose secretion in vitro and in vivo, coinciding with defective glucose homeostasis. CDKAL1 mutant insulin+ cells were also hypersensitive to glucolipotoxicity. A high-content chemical screen identified a candidate drug that rescued CDKAL1 specific defects in vitro and in vivo by inhibiting the FOS/JUN pathway. Our approach of a proof-of-principle platform, which uses isogenic hESCs for functional evaluation of GWAS-identified loci and identification of a drug candidate that rescues gene-specific defects, paves the way for precision therapy of metabolic diseases. Zeng et al. report functional evaluation of GWAS identified candidate diabetes genes in an isogenic hESC-based platform. The authors find that biallelic mutations in CDKAL1, KCNQ1, and KCNJ11 caused impaired insulin secretion both in vitro and in vivo, and identified the compound T5224 which rescued mutant CDKAL1 associated pancreatic beta cell defects by inhibiting the FOS/JUN pathway.
