Polimorfismo de la proteína ligante de ácidos grasos intestinal (FABP2), obesidad e insulina resistencia
The genetic components of insulin-resistance, diabetes and obesity have been largely studied. These conditions are determined by multiple polygenic and environmental factors. Certain candidate genes, that have common functional variants in the general population, may be important determinants of int...
