The ATGL Gene Is Associated With Free Fatty Acids, Triglycerides, and Type 2 Diabetes

1 May 2006

Abstract excerpt

Adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) was recently described to predominantly perform the initial step in triglyceride hydrolysis and therefore seems to play a pivotal role in the lipolytic catabolism of stored fat in adipose tissue. In the first study investigating genetic variations within the ATGL gene in humans, 12 polymorphisms identified via sequencing and database search were studied in 2,434 individuals of...
