Genetic Markers To Help Fight Diabetes Discovered
I'm so glad that I found this article, since my family is known for being diagnosed with diabetes. This is a very relieving article to just find some facts about genetic markers helping out to fight diabetes. This will help diabetic patients because this treatment will have fewer side-effects. That is an amazing break through. "We identified genetic variants that may predict how well someone will respond to the common anti-diabetes drug, Actos," said Dr. DiStefano, Director of TGen’s Diabetes, Cardiovascular & Metabolic Diseases Division. "The implications of these findings include determining which patients will best respond to the drug for the prevention or treatment of diabetes. In addition, this work lays the foundation for personalized medicine for patients with this disease." -Science Daily. Of course,I hope that it works for most patients, because everyone is different. This treatment (along with millions of other kinds) may not work for everyone.
