Abstract excerpt
The associations of five SNPs (SNPs1-5: A-5468G, A-3333G, C-1794T, C437T and T9148C) of the class II phosphoinositide 3-kinase gamma-subunit (PIK3C2G) gene with type 2 diabetes were examined using a population of the Takahata Study (n (M/W): 2930 (1328/1602); age: 63.3+/-10.2 years), a Japanese community-based study. Quantitative association study of the SNPs with HbA1c levels showed significant association for...
