Melatonin in type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity.

Nature reviews. Endocrinology - 1 Feb 2019

Karamitri Angeliki, Jockers Ralf

Abstract excerpt

Despite considerable advances in the past few years, obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remain two major challenges for public health systems globally. In the past 9 years, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have established a major role for genetic variation within the MTNR1B locus in regulating fasting plasma levels of glucose and in affecting the risk of T2DM. This discovery generated a major...
