Metabolic and haemodynamic effects of oral glucose loading in young healthy men carrying the 825T-allele of the G protein β3 subunit

Metabolic and haemodynamic effects of oral glucose loading in young healthy men carrying the 825T-allele of the G protein β3 subunit

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>A C825T polymorphism was recently identified in the gene encoding the β3 subunit of heterotrimeric G-proteins (<it>GNB3</it>). The T-allele is significantly associated with essential hypertension and obesity. In order to...
