DDAH1 promoter ‐396 4N insertion variant is associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes in a gender‐dependent manner

Abstract Background Asymmetrical dimethylarginine (ADMA) is an endogenous inhibitor of nitric oxide synthases, making it a contributing factor for diabetes. Endogenous ADMA is hydrolyzed by dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase 1 (DDAH1), and a DDAH1 promoter ‐396 4N deletion/insertion polymorphis...
