Abstract excerpt

Diabetes mellitus is one of the main threats to human health in the 21st century. Visfatin/Nampt and resistin are novel adipokines that have been implicated in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) complication. Several genetic studies have shown inconsistent results regarding association of visfatin/Nampt gene (NAMPT) and resistin gene (RETN) polymorphisms with T2DM...
