Abstract:
The expressions of HNF-4? and HNF-1? gene were assayed by RT-PCR in the livers of insulin-resistant rats and type 2 diabetic rats. mRNA levels of HNF-4? and HNF-1? in insulin-resistant rats were lower than those in control rats, and these levels were further decreased in diabetic rats. Changes in expressions of these 2 genes seem to be associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
