1. Beta Cell Function: from Human Genetics to Animal Models
Abstract : Beta cell function is an important factor in the development of both Type 1 (T1D) and Type 2 (T2D) diabetes mellitus. T1D is characterized by a primary defect in insulin secretion due to the immune-mediated beta cell destruction, however, the more common T2D beside insulin resistance also include impaired beta cell function as a consequence to abnormal glucose homeostasis.

2. Search for Type 2 Diabetes Susceptibility Genes Using Multiple Approaches
Abstract : Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a multifactorial disorder characterized by chronic hyperglycemia resulting from pancreatic dysfunction and insulin resistance. It is a common disorder with a complex pattern of inheritance, likely to reflect the influence of multiple genetic and environmental factors on the diabetes risk. READ MORE

3. Exploring Positional and Functional Candidate Genes for Type 2 Diabetes
Abstract : Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a complex, metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycaemia because of defects in insulin secretion and sensitivity. The rapid increase in T2D is likely to reflect the influence of both genetic and environmental factors in disease development. However, the genetic aetiology of T2D remains largely unknown. READ MORE

5. Identification of susceptibility genes in type 2 diabetes
Abstract : Identification of the susceptibility genes will offer better understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying T2D pathogenesis, and subsequently may lead to development of novel therapeutic approaches. This thesis mainly concerns the genetic association study of four candidate genes. READ MORE
