Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To study the baseline distribution of polymorphisms in the promoter of peroxisome proliferators activated receptor co-activator 1 (PPARGC1A) gene in ethnic Hans from Beijing, and to assess their association with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). METHODS: A 2-stage study was designed. Firstly, the promoter region of PPAGC1A gene was screened with PCRRFLP in a small population (n=216, T2DM/control: 104/112), which...
