title: Transforming growth factor β1 T868C gene polymorphism is associated with cerebral infarction in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes.
abstract: It is likely that the C allele of the polymorphism at position 29 of the translated sequence of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 gene, which codes a pleiotropic cytokine expressed in a variety of cells, is a susceptibility allele for cerebral infarction in Japanese type 2 diabetic patients.
