Abstract

Diabetes is one of the fastest growing diseases all over the world. However, the current therapeutic strategies have not been able to stop neither its progressive course nor its complications. One possible explanation might be that the diabetes diagnosis is carried out according to glucose values, but the disease is heterogeneous regarding its causes, clinic presentation and evolution.

Diabetes historic classification in type 1 and type 2 is based, primarily, on the presence (type 1) or absebce (type 2) of autobodies against ß cells in the pancreatic islets. Therefore, 75-85% of the patients are classified as type 2 diabetes.
