Abstract excerpt

The KORA studies serve as a powerful tool for the genetic analysis of complex diseases like type 2 diabetes or the metabolic syndrome. These studies include more than 2,000 prevalent and incident type 2 diabetes cases. DNA of these patients is available to be used in genetic studies. Up to now the analyses have focussed on genes coding for proteins being involved in the inflammatory response. Interleukin-6 (IL-6)...
