The functional "KL-VS" variant of KLOTHO is not associated with type 2 diabetes in 5028 UK Caucasians
BACKGROUND: Klotho has an important role in insulin signalling and the development of ageing-like phenotypes in mice. The common functional "KL-VS" variant in the KLOTHO (KL) gene is associated with longevity in humans but its role in type 2 diabetes is not known. We performed a large case...
