Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Sorbin and SH3-domain-containing-1 (SORBS1) is an important adaptor protein in insulin-signalling pathway, and its genetic polymorphism may regulate the activity of insulin resistance. We investigated the association between the SORBS1 T228A polymorphism and ischaemic stroke. METHODS: Genotyping was achieved by a rapid-cycle PCR and melting curve analysis using fluorescent probes in 1049...
