Abstract
Type-1 diabetes is a multifactorial disease characterized by genetic and environmental factors that contribute to its development and progression. Despite progress in the management of type-1 diabetes, the final goal of curing the disease is yet to be achieved. To establish effective methods for the prevention, intervention, and cure of the disease, the molecular mechanisms and pathways involved in its development and progression should be clarified. One effective approach is to identify genes responsible for disease susceptibility and apply information obtained from the function of genes in disease etiology for the protection, intervention, and cure of type-1 diabetes. In this review, we discuss the genetic basis of type-1 diabetes, along with prospects for its prevention, intervention, and cure for type-1 diabetes.
期刊介绍:
Diabetology International, the official journal of the Japan Diabetes Society, publishes original research articles about experimental research and clinical studies in diabetes and related areas. The journal also presents editorials, reviews, commentaries, reports of expert committees, and case reports on any aspect of diabetes. Diabetology International welcomes submissions from researchers, clinicians, and health professionals throughout the world who are interested in research, treatment, and care of patients with diabetes. All manuscripts are peer-reviewed to assure that high-quality information in the field of diabetes is made available to readers. Manuscripts are reviewed with due respect for the author''s confidentiality. At the same time, reviewers also have rights to confidentiality, which are respected by the editors. The journal follows a single-blind review procedure, where the reviewers are aware of the names and affiliations of the authors, but the reviewer reports provided to authors are anonymous. Single-blind peer review is the traditional model of peer review that many reviewers are comfortable with, and it facilitates a dispassionate critique of a manuscript.
