Abstract Background An A54T polymorphism at the fatty acid binding protein 2 (FABP2) locus was found to be associated with insulin resistance in non-diabetic Pima Indians. To see whether this...

Abstract Background The role of glucokinase (GCK) in the pathogenesis of maturity-onset diabetes of the young is well established. However, its role in the common form of type 2 diabetes is far from...
Genetic variation in aldosterone synthase predicts plasma glucose levels
Ranade, Koustubh, Wu, Kwan Dun, Risch, Neil, Olivier, Michael, Pei, Dee, Hsiao, Chin-Fu, ...
The mineralocorticoid hormone, aldosterone, is known to play a role in sodium homeostasis. We serendipitously found, however, highly significant association between single-nucleotide polymorphisms in...
High-throughput genotyping of single nucleotide polymorphisms using new biplex invader technology
