The association of genetic polymorphisms in sex hormone biosynthesis and action with insulin sensitivity and diabetes mellitus in women at midlife.

The American journal of medicine - 1 Sept 2006

Abstract excerpt

We evaluated associations of insulin sensitivity, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes mellitus with single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variants from sex hormone biosynthesis and action in women of 4 races/ethnicities. DNA was extracted from transformed cell samples of 1,538 women in the Study of Women's Health Across the Nation (SWAN). African American, Caucasian, Chinese, and Japanese women in SWAN enrolled in...
