Abstract excerpt
We investigated whether PPAR-γ2 gene polymorphisms are associated with serum lipids and the occurrence of coronary heart disease (CHD) prospectively characterised for the presence or absence of Type 2 diabetes in a Turkish population. Our study included 202 patients with CHD (102 with diabetes, 100 without diabetes) and 105 controls. PPARγ genotypes were determined by PCR-RFLP technique. The PPARγ-C161T CC...
