Gender-dependent association of HSD11B1 single nucleotide polymorphisms with glucose and HDL-C levels

Gender-dependent association of HSD11B1 single nucleotide polymorphisms with glucose and HDL-C levels

In this study, we investigated the influence of two SNPs (rs846910 and rs12086634) of the HSD11B1 gene that encodes 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1(11β-HSD1), the enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of cortisol to cortisone, on variables associated with obesity and metabolic syndrome in 215...
