Pro12Ala and His447His polymorphisms of PPAR-γ are associated with polycystic ovary syndrome
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder that affects 4-12% of women of reproductive age, and is specified when two of the three following criteria are present: hyperandrogenism, oligomenorrhoea and polycystic ovary morphology by ultrasonography. PCOS is characterized by infertility, obesity and hyperinsulinaemia.

Interaction between genes and lifestyle factors on obesity. [PDF]
Obesity originates from a failure of the body-weight control systems, which may be affected by changing environmental influences. Basically, the obesity risk depends on two important mutually-interacting factors: (1) genetic variants (single-nucleotide ...

We investigated whether Pro12Ala (C→G) and His447His (C→T) polymorphisms of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) gene are associated with susceptibility to Alzheimer's disease (AD). We conducted a meta-analysis of the associations between the PPARγ Pro12Ala and His447His polymorphisms and AD in subjects.

Pharmacogenetics in Type 2 Diabetes: Potential Implications for Clinical Practice [PDF]
Pharmacogenetic research aims to study how genetic variation may influence drug efficacy and/or toxicity; pharmacogenomics expands this quest to the entire genome. Pharmacogenetic findings may help to uncover new drug targets, illuminate pathophysiology,
