Abstract excerpt
Hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) is a key regulator of the genes involved in the cellular response to hypoxia. This study aims to determine the HIF-1α gene polymorphism and its association with protein expression in diabetic subjects with and without diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). A total of 529 patients with T2DM (N = 185), DFU (N = 199) and Control (N = 145) were accounted for the study. PCR-RFLP...
