Type 1 diabetes mellitus-associated genetic variants contribute to overlapping immune regulatory networks
2018-05-17
Abstract excerpt
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterised by the autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic islet beta cells in genetically predisposed individuals. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified over 60 risk loci across the human genome, marked by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which confer genetic predisposition to T1D. There is increasing evidence that dise...
