Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of beta3 adrenergic receptor (beta3AR) Trp64Arg and peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma 2 (PPARgamma2) Prol2Ala polymorphisms on insulin resistance. METHODS: One hundred and eight dizygotic twin pairs were enrolled in this study. Microsatellite polymorphism was used to diagnose zygosity of twins. Insulin sensitivity was estimated with logarithm transformed homeostasis...
