Abstract excerpt
Introduction: MicroRNAs (miRNA) involved in the insulin signaling pathways deeply affect the pathogenesis of T2DM. The aim of this study was to assess the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of the related miRNAs (let-7f rs10877887, let-7a-1 rs13293512, miR-133a-1 rs8089787, miR-133a-2 rs13040413, and miR-27a rs895819) and susceptibility to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and its possible...
