Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Increased levels of inflammatory markers, such as interleukin-6 (IL-6), are associated with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). We investigated the association of IL-6 gene polymorphisms with T2DM and circulating levels of IL-6 in Koreans. SUBJECTS: A total of 1477 subjects with normal glucose tolerance and 476 T2DM patients were included. MEASUREMENTS: We examined IL-6 -174G-->C, -572C-->G, -597G-->A and...
