Genetic Architecture of Type 2 Diabetes: Recent Progress and Clinical Implications
W ith the exception of rare monogenic disorders, most type 2 diabetes results from the interaction of genetic variation at multiple different chromosomal sites with environmental exposures experienced throughout the lifespan (1). This complex genetic architecture has important consequences for understanding the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes, both for researchers seeking mechanistic insight...
متن کاملGenetic susceptibility to type 2 diabetes and implications for therapy.
Since 2000, we have witnessed an explosion of known genetic determinants of type 2 diabetes risk. These findings have seeded the expectation that our ability to make personalized, predictive, therapeutic clinical decisions is imminent. However, the loci discovered to date explain only a small fraction of overall inheritable risk for this disease. In many cases, the reported associations merely ...
متن کاملGenetic Susceptibility to Type 2 Diabetes and Implications for Therapy
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic condition characterized by increased glucose level due to absence/insufficient insulin secretion (Figure 1). The old classification of diabetes divided it into juvenileand maturity-onset diabetes. Now an etiology based classification devised by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) and the World Health Organization (WHO) is used that divides diabetes into: type ...
متن کاملSleep and type 2 diabetes mellitus- clinical implications.
Sleep is essential for life. Body systems require sleep of good quantity and quality for their proper functioning. Glucose metabolism can be affected adversely by several sleep disorders. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the most important disorder identified in the last 50 years which has systemic effects including glucose metabolism. Aging process also has its effects on glucose metabo...
متن کاملThe Genetic Architecture of Type 1 Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is classically characterised by the clinical need for insulin, the presence of disease-associated serum autoantibodies, and an onset in childhood. The disease, as with other autoimmune diseases, is due to the interaction of genetic and non-genetic effects, which induce a destructive process damaging insulin-secreting cells. In this review, we focus on the nature of this in...
