Preproghrelin Leu72Met polymorphism in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Journal of internal medicine - 1 Oct 2003

Ukkola O, Kesäniemi Y A

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The association between the Leu72Met polymorphism of the preproghrelin gene and diabetic complications was examined in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: A total of 258 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and 522 control subjects were screened. Genotypes were determined by polymerase chain reaction technique. The diagnosis of coronary heart disease was based on clinical...
