Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: Polymorphism Ala54Thr of the intestinal fatty acid-binding protein 2 (FABP2) has been reported to have an effect on the protein's affinity for long chain fatty acids and to be associated with serum lipid and insulin levels in fasting and especially postprandial states. We wanted to test whether this genetic variation is associated with fasting and postprandial glucose, insulin or lipid levels in 666...
