Abstract excerpt
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ2 (PPARγ2) is a nuclear hormone receptor of ligand-dependent transcription factor with a key role in adipogenesis and insulin sensitization in diabetes mellitus. In this study, we investigated genetic variants in PPARγ2 promoter, its association with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), and its molecular regulation. PPARγ2 promoter and start codon (-2,091 to +82 bp)...
