Abstract excerpt
To examine the association of the ATP-binding cassette transporter 1 (ABCA1) gene with type 2 diabetes (DM), we studied genetic polymorphisms of the ABCA1 gene including its linkage disequilibrium (LD) and haplotype analyses using a Japanese population. A sample set (DM:72, IGT:75, and NGT:227) was genotyped with 34 SNPs distributed from the promoter region to the last exon of the ABCA1 gene. LD between SNPs was...
