The re-assessment of the association of mt-ND3 rs2853826, PGC1α variants (rs2970847 and rs8192678), and UCP2 rs659366 polymorphisms with T2D (Table S2) in cases and controls, genotyped for polymorphisms in the proposed genes in the present study, showed similar significant associations, as reported earlier [21]. This evidence concerns the gene UCP2 and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
