Quantification of beta-defensins (DEFB) gene copy number variations in relation to inflammation in type 2 diabetes mellitus and diabetic nephropathy patients

Introduction: Association studies between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have been abundant. However, there are limited reports on copy number variations (CNVs) of beta-defensins (DEFB) gene in relation to T2DM. In this study, DEFB copy numbers were quanti...
