Diabetes Mellitus, Non-Insulin-Dependent
0.050 Biomarker disease BEFREE We conclude that FOXC2 is associated with obesity and metabolic deterioration but does not contribute to an increased risk for type 2 diabetes. 15597109 2005
Diabetes Mellitus, Non-Insulin-Dependent
0.050 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Our data suggest that the FOXC2 -512C>T variant is not associated with Type 2 diabetes. 14530861 2003
Diabetes Mellitus, Non-Insulin-Dependent
0.050 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Thus, the SNPs identified in the FOXC2 gene are unlikely to have major effects on susceptibility to Japanese type 2 diabetes. 12540636 2003
Diabetes Mellitus, Non-Insulin-Dependent
0.050 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Increased FOXC2 levels, induced by high fat diet, seem to counteract most of the symptoms associated with obesity, including hypertriglyceridemia and diet-induced insulin resistance--a likely consequence hereof would be protection against type 2 diabetes. 11551504 2001
