Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have suggested that genetic variation in the beta2 (b2-AR) and beta3 (b3-AR) adrenergic receptor genes are associated with obesity and insulin resistance. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of beta2 (Gln27>Glu) and beta3 (Trp64>Arg) adrenoreceptor gen...
