Summary: | To investigate the presence/absence of the
gene as a marker for genetic predisposition to Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
We enrolled 122 patients diagnosed with T2DM and 77 non-diabetic individuals. We evaluated clinical and biochemical parameters (body mass index, hypertension, cholesterol levels, glycosylated hemoglobin, triglycerides, etc.), and performed a genotypic profiling of
by polymerase chain reaction analyses.
Approximately one third of the population lacked
. We did not observe a statistically significant association between the presence/absence of
and T2DM.
The genotypic distribution of
in our population was consistent to that reported by others. This gene failed as a marker for T2DM predisposition. |
