IRS-1 genetic polymorphism (r.2963G>A) in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients associated with insulin resistance
1 Sept 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Insulin receptor substrate (IRS) molecules are key mediators in insulin signaling. Several polymorphisms in the IRS genes have been identified, but only the Gly to Arg 972 substitution of IRS-1 seems to have a pathogenic role in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Many polymorphisms described in IRS-1 gene, especially Gly972Arg substitution, are shown to be associated with insulin...
