Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an organ-specific autoimmune disorder characterized by the destruction of pancreatic β cells, leading to absolute insulin deficiency. The genes NLRP3, ICAM-1, PTPN22, and INS are reportedly associated with T1D in other populations. However, the genetic pattern of T1D in the Pakistani population is not clear. This study aimed to find the association of polymorphisms in the...
