Abstract excerpt
This study was undertaken to test the hypothesis that the diabetes susceptibility gene on chromosome 20q12 responsible for maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) in a large kindred, the RW family, results in characteristic alterations in the dose-response relationships between plasma glucose concentration and insulin secretion rate (ISR) that differentiate this form of MODY from MODY in subjects with...
