MGAT4a and MGAT5, on the other hand were significantly greater in the obese T2D group compared to obese non-diabetic (MGAT4a: 61%, p = 0.039; MGAT5: 54%, p = 0.042) and control (MGAT4a: 87%, p = 0.008; MGAT5: 1.2-folds, p < 0.001) subjects, mirroring the HG-CD147 protein patterns (Figure 1E,F). Here, MGAT4A is linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus.
