ABC transporter genes and risk of type 2 diabetes: a study of 40,000 individuals from the general population
Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review
Alterations of pancreatic β-cell cholesterol content may contribute to β-cell dysfunction. Two important determinants of intracellular cholesterol content are the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters A1 (ABCA1) and -G1 (ABCG1). Whether genetic variation in ABCA1 and ABCG1 predicts risk of type 2 diabetes in the general population is unknown.
