Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Uncoupling proteins (UCPs) 2 and 3 play an important role in the regulation of oxidative stress which contributes to chronic inflammation. Promoter polymorphisms of these genes have been linked to chronic diseases including heart disease and type II diabetes mellitus in several populations. This is the first investigation of the UCP2 -866G/A rs659366 and UCP3 -55C/T rs1800849 polymorphisms in young...
