Identification and functional study of GATA4 gene regulatory variants in type 2 diabetes mellitus
Abstract Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) is a common and complex disease. Dysfunction of pancreatic β cells, which cannot release sufficient insulin, plays a central role in T2D. Genetics plays a critical role in T2D etiology. Transcription factor GATA4 is required for the pancreatic devel...
