Abstract
Insulin resistance (IR), secretion of insulin, and abnormalities of lipid metabolism are all markers of type 2 diabetes (T2DM), which is a progressive and complex metabolic disorder. Major risk factors for the development of T2DM were identified as genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Several studies found that many genes contribute to T2DM susceptibility after glucose tolerance. Adenosine Binding Cassette Transporter Proteins 1 is a member of the ABC gene superfamily that is involved in cholesterol transport and HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) biosynthesis. Abnormal cholesterol metabolism, particularly high-density lipoprotein, has been related to genetic variations in the ABCA1 gene (HDL-C). Previous research suggested that ABCA1 gene polymorphisms may a hereditary risk factor for type 2 diabetes, along with lower HDL levels in various populations.
