Multi-layered epigenetic regulation of IRS2 expression in the liver of obese individuals with type 2 diabetes.

Our study highlights a new multi-layered epigenetic network that could be involved in subtle dysregulation of IRS2 in the liver of individuals with type 2 diabetes. This might lead to fine-tuning of IRS2 expression and is likely to be supplementary to the already known factors regulating IRS2 expression. Thereby, our findings could support the discovery of new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for type 2 diabetes. Graphical abstract.
