Telomere dysfunction-related serological markers in patients with type 2 diabetes; Correlation with methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (C677T) gene polymorphism and diabetic complications
Recent studies have identified a set of serological markers for telomere dysfunction and DNA damage. In the present study, the levels of 2 serological markers of telomere dysfunction namely chitinase and Nacetylglucosaminidase (NAG) were studied in type2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) patients. The possibility that genomic damage, accumulation of reactive oxygen species and shorter telomeres may be linked to the onset ... إقراء المزيد
