Abstract excerpt

AIMS: Although the function of resistin in human biology is unclear, some evidence suggests resistin gene variants influence insulin resistance, and insulin resistance-related hypertension. We searched for associations between common resistin gene variants and factors related to insulin resistance in Asian individuals with high or low blood pressure (BP). METHODS: Non-diabetic Chinese or Japanese sibling pairs...
