Abstract excerpt
Calgranulin B (S100A9) was recognized as a candidate type 2 diabetes (T2D) gene in the genomic profiling of muscle from a rodent model of T2D and identifying the human orthologs of genes localized in T2D susceptibility regions. Circulating and S100A9 expressions in muscle and adipose tissue, isolated fat cells, and mouse models were evaluated. A common 5'-upstream single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP; rs3014866)...
