Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Only afew gene variants were associated with the response to dipeptidylpeptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4I). KCNQ1 gene variants were previously related both to type 2 diabetes (T2D) and incretin effect. We hypothesized that T2D related KCNQ1 variants would be associated with smaller glucose-lowering effect of DDP4I. METHODS: We performed a retrospective study in 137 Caucasian subjects with T2D who were followed...
