Abstract
Researchers have consistently linked some TCF7L2 gene variations, such as rs7903146, rs12255372, and rs11255372, to Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in numerous populations and ethnic groups. The goal of this study is to show if the TCF7L2 variations rs4506565 T/A is linked to T2DM in Iraqi Arab patients. For this purpose, a case-control study was conducted with 100 T2DM patients and 100 controls. The Tetra-Primer ARMS-PCR Technique was used to genotype TCF7L2 rs4506565 T/A, making use of newly-designed primers. The study concluded that the TCF7L2 gene polymorphism rs4506565 T/A shows no significant difference in genotypes in any of the codominant, dominant, over dominant, recessive, and additive models. The dominant model has a significance with age but no significance with other parameters.

期刊介绍:
Meta Gene publishes meta-analysis, polymorphism and population study papers that are relevant to both human and non-human species. Examples include but are not limited to: (Relevant to human specimens): 1Meta-Analysis Papers - statistical reviews of the published literature of human genetic variation (typically linked to medical conditionals and/or congenital diseases) 2Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) - examination of large patient cohorts to identify common genetic factors that influence health and disease 3Human Genetics Papers - original studies describing new data on genetic variation in smaller patient populations 4Genetic Case Reports - short communications describing novel and in formative genetic mutations or chromosomal aberrations (e.g., probands) in very small demographic groups (e.g., family or unique ethnic group). (Relevant to non-human specimens): 1Small Genome Papers - Analysis of genetic variation in organelle genomes (e.g., mitochondrial DNA) 2Microbiota Papers - Analysis of microbiological variation through analysis of DNA sequencing in different biological environments 3Ecological Diversity Papers - Geographical distribution of genetic diversity of zoological or botanical species.
