Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between polymorphisms of insulin-receptor (INSR) gene and insulin resistance in a population-based study in China. METHODS: Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) was used to the amplify Exon 17 of INSR gene and all amplified products were analyzed by direct sequencing. RESULTS: Six single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were found at the following loci: T to TC at the locus of...
