Vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms in Sudanese children with type 1 diabetes

2016-09-09

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a T cell mediated autoimmune disease. Vitamin D was found to suppress the incidence of diabetes when bind to its receptor (VDR), probably by suppressing T cell activations. Thus the VDR gene polymorphism may have an impact on pathophysiology of this disease. Since there was no consistent association between VDR polymorphisms and the risk of T1DM, this study aimed to inve...
