Abstract excerpt
We investigated whether single nucleotide polymorphisms in genes related to glucose metabolism correlate with insulin secretion in type 1 diabetes patients. A cohort of 49 type 1 diabetes patients underwent serial mixed meal tolerance tests to assess insulin secretion. Patients were genotyped for SNPs related to glucose metabolism: CDKAL1 rs7754840, G6PC2 rs560887, HHEX rs1111875, KCNJ11 rs5215. Recently...
