Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: KLF7 encodes Krüppel-like factor (KLF) 7, a member of the KLF family of transcription factors, initially shown to play important roles in cellular development and differentiation, and reported to be specifically involved in adipogenesis. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been identified in KLF7, of which the A-allele of rs2302870 has been associated with type 2 diabetes in a Japanese...
