Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To determine the extent of variation in the gene for peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) in patients with morbid obesity. SUBJECTS: Two hundred morbidly obese patients who underwent gastric banding surgery and 192 healthy blood donors. Diabetics were excluded. EXPERIMENTAL: The frequency of the P115Q and P12A variants in the PPARgamma gene was determined. Single strand...
