Candidate genes and late-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus. Susceptibility genes or common polymorphisms?

Danish medical bulletin - 1 Nov 2003

Hansen Lars

Abstract excerpt

Several lines of evidence suggest that the aetio-pathogenesis of the common form of type 2 diabetes mellitus and its intrinsically related features of impaired insulin secretion and decreased insulin sensitivity (insulin resistance) includes a strong genetic component. At present, however, little is known about the nature of this genetic component although familial clustering of the disease has been described for...
