Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To ascertain the association of the Trp64Arg mutation in the beta 3-adrenergic receptor (ADRB3) gene with the total body fat and fat distribution, plasma glucose level, lipid profile, insulin secretion and action in Chinese. METHODS: Genotyping of the Trp64Arg mutation in the ADRB3 gene as well as measurment of clinical variables body mass index(BMI), percent of desirable weight(PDW), area of regional...
