Abstract excerpt

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) is a candidate gene for the development of obesity, which in turn is a major risk factor for diabetes mellitus. The aim of our study was to investigate whether a previously known NcoI-sensitive polymorphism (-308 G/A) in the promoter regio...
