Article Synopsis
- - The study explored how two specific SNPs in the interleukin-18 gene (rs187238 and rs1946518) and one SNP in another gene (rs3212227) relate to the age at which type 1 diabetes (DM1) begins.
- - A total of 1,101 DM1 patients from various regions in Brazil participated, and their genetic profiles were analyzed using a TaqMan assay based on their ancestry.
- - Findings suggest that the SNP in the second gene might influence the age of DM1 onset due to its effect on gene expression.
