SREBF-1 Gene Polymorphisms Are Associated With Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes in French Obese and Diabetic Cohorts
1 Aug 2004
Abstract excerpt
Sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP)-1 transcription factors play a central role in energy homeostasis by promoting glycolysis, lipogenesis, and adipogenesis. The sterol regulatory element-binding protein gene (SREBF)-1 is a good candidate gene for obesity and obesity-related metabolic traits such as type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemia. The SREBF-1 molecular screening of 40 unrelated obese patients by...
