Global transcriptomic analysis of human pancreatic islets reveals novel genes influencing glucose metabolism [expression array]

ABSTRACT: Here we harnessed the potential of expression arrays in 89 human pancreatic islet donors (different levels of blood glucose (HbA1c)) to identify genes regulated in this relevant tissue for type 2 diabetes (T2D). Islets from cadaver donors were provided by the Nordic Islet Transplantation Programme (www.nordicislets.org), Uppsala University. The microarrays were performed using GeneChipM-BM-. Human Gene 1.0 ST whole transcript according to Affymetrix standard protocol.
