Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Genome studies have shown that the genes encoding paraoxonase 1 (PON1) and PON2 are associated with glucose metabolism. The goal of this study was to simultaneously evaluate the association between functional variants in PON1 and PON2 genes and susceptibility for type 2 diabetes (T2D) and determine whether they can affect glycemic control. METHODS: We performed a case-control study with 145 newly...
