Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) regulates lipid metabolism, cardiac energy balance, vascular inflammation and cell differentiation. We examined whether a PPARα gene variant (rs6008845, C/T) is associated with risk of chronic complications and death, and with benefit of fenofibrate (a PPARα agonist) in adults with type 2 diabetes. METHODS: The variant was genotyped in 8,159...
