Ethnic differences in the associations between the HLA-DRB1*04 subtypes and type 1 diabetes.

abstract：:Lipogenesis occurs primarily in the liver, where dietary carbohydrates control the expression of key enzymes in glycolytic and lipogenic pathways. We have recently discovered that the transcription factor XBP1, best known as a key regulator of the unfolded protein response (UPR), is required for de novo fatty acid syn...
