Common genetic variants of surfactant protein-D (SP-D) are associated with type 2 diabetes.

Common genetic variants of surfactant protein-D (SP-D) are associated with type 2 diabetes.

CONTEXT: Surfactant protein-D (SP-D) is a primordial component of the innate immune system intrinsically linked to metabolic pathways. We aimed to study the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) affecting SP-D with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes (T2D). RESEARCH DESIGN AND MET...
