Abstract excerpt

In this study, the association of the Pro12Ala peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma2 (PPARgamma2) polymorphism with atherosclerosis was examined in a Japanese Type 2 diabetic population. PPARgamma has been identified as a key regulator of adipogenesis. Recently, some studies reported that the Pro12Ala polymorphism was associated with resistance to Type 2 diabetes. It is well-known that Type 2 diabetes...
