Heritability of Serum Resistin and Its Genetic Correlation with Insulin Resistance-Related Features in Nondiabetic Caucasians

3 May 2006

Abstract excerpt

CONTEXT: Serum levels of resistin are believed to modulate insulin resistance in humans. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate whether serum resistin levels are genetically controlled and whether this control is shared with other insulin resistance traits. DESIGN AND METHODS: The study cohort included 264 nondiabetic probands, Caucasian from Italy, and their 473 adult family members. Phenotypic...
