The - 429 T/C and - 374 T/A gene polymorphisms of the receptor of advanced glycation end products gene are not risk factors for diabetic retinopathy in Caucasians with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to look for a relationship between the - 429 T/C and the - 374 T/A gene polymorphisms of the receptor of advanced glycation end products (RAGE) gene and the development of diabetic retinopathy in Caucasians with type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: One hundred and sixteen subjects with type 2 diabetes and diabetic retinopathy were compared to 70 diabetic subjects without...
