Whole transcriptome RNA-seq reveals key regulatory factors involved in type 2 diabetes pathology in peripheral fat of Asian Indians

Abstract The prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes has reached an epidemic proportion particularly in south Asian countries. We have earlier shown that the anatomical fat distribution, termed ‘thin fat phenotype’ in this population indeed plays a major role for their T2D-predisposition it is indeed the sick...
