20 Jul 2017
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: The prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and the metabolic syndrome (MetS) is increasing and several studies suggested an involvement of DNA methylation in the development of these metabolic diseases. This study was designed to investigate if differential DNA methylation in blood can function as a biomarker for T2D and/or MetS. METHODS: Pyrosequencing analyses were performed for the candidate genes...
