Adipose tissue 11-beta-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type 1 and Hexose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase gene expressions are increased in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

Aims: We have determined 11-beta-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type I (HSD11B1) and Hexose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase, (H6PD) mRNA expression levels in adipose tissues from patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
