Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The aim of our study was to determine the variant pattern of the leukemia-associated Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor (LARG, or ARHGEF12) gene and investigate whether LARG variants are associated with diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM), the metabolic syndrome (MetS), or related parameters such as insulin sensitivity in German Caucasians. DESIGN: We analyzed single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in...
