The androgen receptor CAG repeat polymorphism as a risk factor of low serum testosterone and its cardiometabolic effects in men.

International journal of andrology - 1 Aug 2012

Abstract excerpt

Previous studies reported correlations of CAG repeat length with sex hormone serum concentrations and cardiometabolic risk factors, but were limited by small cross-sectional samples. We used data of 1859 men aged 20-79 years from the population-based Study of Health in Pomerania (SHIP) to investigate the direct and modulating effects of CAG repeat length on androgen action and cardiometabolic risk factors. We...
