Predisposition, Genetic, Cancer
Investigating the Role of Genetics in Disease Predisposition
Gametogenesis is the production of sperm and eggs; it takes place through the process of meiosis. Gametogenesis is subject to the acquisition of mutations as with other processes in the body.

- Trial name
- NCT06584994
- Testing
- sample collection
- Where
- United Kingdom
- Volunteers
- 1,000 people, healthy volunteers welcome
- Sponsor
- The Wellcome Sanger Institute
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Gene Polymorphisms
Effect of Mutations in T2DM Susceptibility Genes on the Expression of Susceptibility Genes in Patients With T2DM and Controls
In this study, investigators wanted to determine the effect of T2DM susceptibility gene mutations on self-expression. Participants (T2DM patients and controls) were recruited to identify genotypes and detect the levels of T2DM…
