Global transcriptomic analysis of human pancreatic islets reveals novel genes influencing glucose metabolism [RNA-seq]

Here we harnessed the potential of RNA sequencing in 89 human pancreatic islet donors to identify genes and exons regulated in this relevant tissue for T2D. Overall design: mRNA profiles of 89 human pancreatic islet donors having different levels of blood glucose (HbA1c) with and without T2D. The data was generated by deep sequencing using Illumina HiSeq 2000.
