High ‐fat diet‐induced Tcf7l2 promoter methylation impairs β‐cell function in mouse pancreatic islets
ConclusionAn HFD was shown to induce aberrant methylation of the Tcf7l2 promoter in mouse islets, which resulted in diminished gene expression. This study provides an evidence of the association between nutrient consumption and gene expression.
