Abstract
Understanding the molecular events in the pathogenesis of DM with regards to regulation of zinc uptake would be critical to the evaluation of the natural history of diabetes in humans and especially in various racial groups. If a direct link between zinc transport and diabetes can be established, then a special nutritional formula, medication or other intervention might be especially designed to test the ability to decrease the incidence of this disease in DM susceptible groups, particularly in AAs.
