Association of the T54 allele of the FABP2 gene with cardiovascular risk factors in obese Mexican subjects.

Diabetes & vascular disease research - 1 Sept 2007

Abstract excerpt

Genetic predisposition to cardiovascular risk may vary between different ethnic groups. We studied the effect of the FABP2 A54T polymorphism on biochemical and anthropometric cardiovascular risk factors in 114 obese Mexican subjects. The mean age of the patients studied was 36.8+/-13.3 years. Insulin resistance was present in 47%, hypercholesterolaemia in 49% and hypertriglyceridaemia in 45%. Frequency of the...
