The results of this meta-analysis suggest that the PPARγ2 Pro12Ala (rs1801282) polymorphism might be correlated with a higher risk of CVD, particularly MI, and could serve as an important early indicator for CVD.
Our results indicate that the Pro12Ala and C161T polymorphisms were associated with some important risk factors for CVD in HD patients in the Han Chinese population.
To analyze the contribution of the PPAR-gamma Pro12Ala polymorphism to GH induced changes in determinants of metabolic and cardiovascular disease in short SGA children.
The Pro12Ala polymorphism in the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma 2 gene is suggested to associate with diabetic nephropathy and cardiovascular disease in type 2 diabetes.
Using DNA samples collected at baseline in a prospective cohort of 14 916 initially healthy American men, we evaluated a P12A polymorphism in the PPARG2 among 523 individuals who subsequently developed myocardial infarction and among 2092 individuals who remained free of reported cardiovascular disease over a mean follow-up period of 13.2 years.
