Abstract excerpt
AIMS: To investigate the effect of the microRNA-196a2 gene polymorphism (rs11614913) on risk of cardiovascular disease in type 2 diabetes patients. METHODS: We examined 920 patients with diabetes and 834 healthy controls. All subjects were genotyped for the miRNA-196a2 SNP by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction analysis. RESULTS: The genotype distribution among controls and patients was in...
