Functional characterization of novel genetic loci associated with type 1 diabetes
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease that results from the destruction of the insulin producing beta cells by the immune system. A disease of complex etiology, it involves both genetic and environmental factors. Over 40 genetic loci have been shown to increase T1D risk, where allelic varia...
