No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the relation between individual differences in pattern recognition molecules (PRM's) in the innate immune system and the prevalence and development of vascular complications in patients with type 2 diabetes.

This is based on the hypothesis that pattern recognition molecules (PRM's) in the innate immune system contributes to a chronic low grade inflammation in diabetic patients. Variation in PRM's - at the genome, proteome as well as the functional level - are therefore associated with the degree of chronic low grade inflammation, and probably also with the prevalence of vascular complications.
