Study identifies cluster of dysregulated genes in pancreatic islets of type 2 diabetes patients

Type 2 diabetes, which affects >0.5 billion people worldwide, results from the inability of beta cells in the pancreatic islets to provide the body with enough insulin to maintain blood glucose levels within the range for a healthy life.
