Association analysis of urotensin II gene (UTS2) and flanking regions with biochemical parameters related to insulin resistance.
<h4>Background</h4>Urotensin II (UII) is a potent vasoconstrictor peptide, which signals through a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) known as GPR14 or urotensin receptor (UTR). UII exerts a broad spectrum of actions in several systems such as vascular cell, heart muscle or pancreas, wher...
