Genetic polymorphism within human growth hormone gene region and BMI in type 2 diabetes.

Acta diabetologica - 1 Dec 2006

Abstract excerpt

Currently there is a surge of interest in the association of obesity with growth hormone (GH). Our hypothesis is that genetic variation within the hGH area could predispose to obesity in type 2 diabetes. We examined 68 Caucasian subjects with type 2 diabetes from the central area of Continental Italy. In these subjects we examined four polymorphic loci (Msp1A, Msp1B, BglIIA and BglIIB) located in the hGH gene...
