Fatty acid binding protein-2 gene variants and insulin resistance: gene and gene-environment interaction effects.

Physiological genomics - 3 Sept 2002

Weiss Edward P, Brown Michael D, Shuldiner Alan R, Hagberg James M

Abstract excerpt

The intestinal fatty acid binding protein (FABP2) gene is proposed as a candidate gene for diabetes because the protein it codes is involved in fatty acid (FA) absorption and metabolism and may, therefore, affect insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism. Numerous studies have assessed FABP2 gene variants and their association with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Some weak evidence indicates that the...
