Insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion in monozygotic and dizygotic twins.

Diabetologia - 1 Mar 2000

Lehtovirta M, Kaprio J, Forsblom C, Eriksson J, Tuomilehto J, Groop L

Abstract excerpt

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: To estimate the heritability of insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion, both of which are considered to contribute to the development of Type II (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus. METHODS: Intraclass correlation coefficients and heritability estimates for insulin sensi...
