Association between the Pro12Ala polymorphism of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma gene and strength athlete status. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BackgroundThe 12Ala allele of the Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor gamma gene (PPARG) Pro12Ala polymorphism produces a decreased binding affinity of the PPARγ2 protein, resulting in low activation of the target genes.

The common PPARγ Pro12Ala polymorphism is associated with decreased risk of type 2 diabetes

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2000
Genetic association studies are viewed as problematic and plagued by irreproducibility. Many associations have been reported for type 2 diabetes, but none have been confirmed in multiple samples and with comprehensive controls. We evaluated 16 published genetic associations to type 2 diabetes and related sub-phenotypes using a family-based design to ...

The Pro12Ala polymorphism in the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma-2 gene (PPARγ2) is associated with increased risk of coronary artery disease: a meta-analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Contradictory results have been reported regarding the association between Pro12Ala polymorphism of PPARγ2 and coronary artery disease (CAD). We sought to estimate the inconsistent results by performing a comprehensive meta-analysis. METHODS:

Association Between Pro12Ala Polymorphism of Peroxisome ProliferatorActivated Receptor Gamma (PPARγ) and Components of Metabolic Syndrome

open access: greenEndocrinology Research and Practice, 2010
Objective: Metabolic syndrome is a highly prevalent complex disorder characterized by abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and hypertension. It occurs as a result of the interaction between genetic susceptibility and environmental factors,
