A Common 34C>G Variant at the Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor γ2- Gene in Chilean Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Controls
The 34C>G (Prol2Ala) polymorphic variant of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ2 (PPAR-γ2) gene has been associated with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, the results between populations are contradictory. Thus, in the present study was investigated the pos...
