Examining the relationships between the Pro12Ala variant in PPARG and Type 2 diabetes-related traits in UK samples.
AIMS: The Pro12Ala polymorphism in the PPARG gene alters amino acid sequence and has shown consistent association with susceptibility to Type 2 diabetes in several populations. The present study makes use of large, well-characterized case-control resources to enhance understanding of this susceptibi...
