Are aCE , PAI-1 , decorin and Werner helicase genes associated with the development of renal disease in European patients with type 1 diabetes?
The genes studied are unlikely to be involved in the susceptibility to nephropathy in Type 1 diabetic patients.
These data demonstrate that genetically determined variable sodium channel transcription occurs in the human heart and is associated with variable conduction velocity, an important contributor to arrhythmia susceptibility.
