Recent advances in the understanding of the genetics of type 2 diabetes (T2D) susceptibility have focused attention on the regulation of transcriptional activity within the pancreatic beta-cell. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) represent an important component of regulatory control, and have proven roles in the d...
ORGANISM(S): Homo sapiens 
Readily accessible samples such as peripheral blood or cell lines are increasingly being used in large cohorts to characterise gene expression differences between a patient group and healthy controls. However, cell and RNA isolation procedures and the variety of cell types that make up whole blood c...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNA molecules involved in post-transcriptional control of gene expression of a wide number of genes, including those involved in glucose homeostasis. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is characterized by hyperglycaemia and defects in insulin secretion and action at target tissu...
ORGANISM(S): Rattus norvegicus 
The study includes whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) on 34 adipose (7 MZ pairs, 6 DZ pairs and 8 singletons) and 27 blood (7 MZ pairs, 6 DZ pairs and 1 singleton) DNA samples derived from a total of 43 female twins belonging to the MuTHER/TwinsUK cohort. We generated 11.5 billion 100bp paired...

The intersection of genome-wide association analyses with physiological and functional data indicates that variants regulating islet gene transcription influence type 2 diabetes (T2D) predisposition and glucose homeostasis. However, the specific genes through which these regulatory variants act rema...
