Abstract excerpt

Elevated plasma interleukin-6 (IL-6) is associated with coronary heart disease (CHD), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), and type 2 diabetes (T2DM). We and others have described an association between the human interleukin-6 -174G>C gene variant and body mass index (BMI). Within our previous sample of subjects with T2DM, we measured plasma IL-6 and grouped subjects by the WHO-defined metabolic syndrome, in order...
