Genetic variation at the CY2C19 gene associated with Metabolic Syndrome susceptibility in a South Portuguese population [PDF]
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a cluster of conditions — increased blood pressure, high blood glucose level, excess body fat around the waist and abnormal cholesterol levels — that occur together, increasing the risk of heart disease, stroke and diabetes ...

Association between 28 single nucleotide polymorphisms and type 2 diabetes mellitus in the Kazakh population: a case-control study. [PDF]
We evaluated the associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms and different clinical parameters related to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), obesity risk, and metabolic syndrome (MS) in a Kazakh cohort. A total of 1336 subjects, including 408 T2DM

Use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is correlated with a reduced risk of cancer through the reduction of inflammation, which is an important risk factor. Several studies have investigated polymorphisms in the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) gene and NSAID use in association with cancer risk.

Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) gene is one of the possible genes linking diabetes mellitus (DM) with coronary artery disease (CAD). The aim of this study is to clarify whether PPAR-γ Pro12Ala polymorphism is associated with the development of CAD in type 2 diabetic patients and to evaluate PPAR-γ Pro12Ala polymorphism genetic ...

Polymorphism of the PPARG, AGTR1, VEGF-A genes: frequency and association with obesity phenotypes
Aim. To assess the association of the allele and genotype frequencies of following single nucleotide polymorphisms: rs1801282 of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARG) gene, rs5186 of the angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AGTR1) gene,

Effects of the PPARG gene polymorphisms on markers of obesity and the metabolic syndrome in Bosnian subjects [PDF]
Background: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARg) is a key transcription factor in adipogenesis, and also regulates a number of genes associated with lipid storage and insulin sensitivity.

Consistency between cross-sectional and longitudinal SNP: blood lipid associations [PDF]
Various studies have linked different genetic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to different blood lipids (BL), but whether these "connections” were identified using cross-sectional or longitudinal (i.e., changes over time) designs has received ...
