Abstract excerpt
Genetic association with type 1 diabetes (T1D) has been established for two chromosomal regions: HLA DQ/DR (IDDM1) and INS VNTR (IDDM2). To identify additional genetic markers, we tested polymorphisms in regulatory regions of several cytokine and important metabolic genes. These polymorphisms exh...
