A LANDSCAPE OF GENETIC OF DIABETES IN ITS LAST PROVISIONAL MOVEMENT, 101

Abstract

The new 3rd millennium could be considered as “the golden decade” for the genetic of diabetes mellitus. After 4 decades of intensive search of genes associate with various phenotypes of diabetes, related with Genome Wide Scan studies, permitted not only to discover new diabetogenic genes, but also to select from the previous studies based on “candidate gene approach” those really linked with both Type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Here is a short presentation of the new landscape of genetics of various phenotypes of diabetes.
