Abstract:
Type 2 diabetes is a polygenic and complex disease.Various approaches, including association analysis, positional cloning, positional candidate gene approach and genome-wide association analysis, were used to identify its susceptible genes.This article summarized the recent findings on susceptible gene mapping of type 2 diabetes.
