Genetic evidence indicated that elevated levels of fibroblast growth factor 19 levels promoted the occurrence of type 2 diabetes mellitus, and increased concentrations of fibroblast growth factor 21 levels, C-C motif chemokine 19 levels, eotaxin levels, and interleukin-10 mitigated the risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus, while type 2 diabetes mellitus did not exert a significant influence on said proteins. The gene discussed is FGF19; the disease is type 2 diabetes mellitus.
