1 16873704 We examined the association of variants in genes encoding several transcription factors (TCF1, TCF2, HNF4A, ISL1, IPF1, NEUROG3, PAX6, NKX2-2, NKX6-1, and NEUROD1) and genes encoding the ATP-sensitive K(+) channel subunits Kir6.2 (KCNJ11) and SUR1 (ABCC8) with type 2 diabetes in a Japanese cohort of 2,834 subjects.
2 17456846 Using this transgenic approach, we have determined that the Nkx2.2-repressor derivative disrupts endogenous Nkx2.2 expression in adult mice and causes downregulation of the mature beta-cell factors, MafA and Glut2.
