Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To examine the relation of the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the resistin gene on the plasma resistin concentration and cardiovascular risk factors. METHODS AND RESULTS: Plasma resistin concentrations were measured and SNP -420C>G, +157C>T, and +299G>A genotyped in our Finnish population-based cohort. Association analyses were performed in the control group of the cohort (n=515). In...
