Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) contributes to type 2 diabetes (T2DM) pathogenesis, and genetic variations in VEGFA gene were suggested to influence VEGF secretion and T2DM pathogenesis. AIM: To evaluate the association of specific VEGFA variants with altered VEGF levels, and with T2DM among Tunisians. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: A retrospective case-control study, performed on 815 T2DM patients,...
