A polymorphism in the retinol binding protein 4 gene is not associated with gestational diabetes mellitus in several different ethnic groups.

Hawaii medical journal - 1 Aug 2011

Hiraoka Mark, Urschitz Johann, Sultan Omar, Ward Kenneth

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Various Asian and Pacifific Islander groups have higher prevalence rates of type 2 diabetes and gestational diabetes. This increased incidence is likely to include genetic factors. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the retinol binding protein 4 gene have been linked to the occurrence...
