The prevalence of non-insulin-dependent (Type 2) diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) is increasing worldwide. Although recent studies suggest that primary prevention of NIDDM is possible, strategies for controlling the NIDDM pandemic remain under development. Successful interventions to date have mainly relie
Recent advances in the understanding of the pathogenesis of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) have led to the first trials of disease prevention in susceptible individuals. Two main trials (nicotinamide and insulin) are now running but first results will not be available before the turn of
The insulin receptor has been proposed as a candidate gene for the inherited defect in Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus and we therefore studied three restriction fragment length polymorphic sites, two revealed with the enzyme Sst1 and one by Rsa1, using two insulin receptor cDNA pro
In the last five years, genetic markers for a large number of diseases have been localised using linkage analysis of DNA polymorphisms in affected families. The site of the genetic defect or defects leading to Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus, a common illness with a major genetic co
Concordance for Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes was determined in 250 monozygotic and 264 dizygotic white male twin pairs who participated in the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Twin Study. These twins were born between 1917 and 1927 and were identified from military records withou
