DNA Methylation as a Diagnostic and Therapeutic Target in the Battle Against Type 2 Diabetes

1 Jun 2015

Abstract excerpt

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) develops due to insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion, predominantly in genetically predisposed subjects exposed to nongenetic risk factors like obesity, physical inactivity and ageing. Emerging data suggest that epigenetics also play a key role in the pathogenesis of T2D. Genome-wide studies have identified altered DNA methylation patterns in pancreatic islets, skeletal muscle...
