Abstract excerpt
Genetic susceptibility may be responsible for high prevalence of type 2 diabetes worldwide. A common missense single nucleotide polymorphism, K121Q in the ectoenzyme nucleotide pyrophosphate phosphodiesterase (ENPP1) gene, has recently been associated with type 2 diabetes in Italian, South Indian, and American populations. The objective of this study was to investigate the possible role of K121Q polymorphism in...
