Enäggstvillingar delar samma DNA, men är inte identiskt lika. En tvilling kan vara sjuk i typ-2 diabetes, medan den andra tvillingen inte utvecklar sjukdomen. En studie som har letts av Lunds universitet har nu upptäckt att det finns skillnader i genernas aktivitet hos tvillingar med och utan typ 2-diabetes. Forskarnas upptäckt kan bidra till utvecklingen av nya behandlingsmetoder. – Enäggstvillin
