1 | We examined the hypothesis that ADRB2 Arg16Gly-Gln27Glu haplotype is associated with body composition, glucose tolerance, and insulin sensitivity in obese, postmenopausal women. | Glucose | adrenoceptor beta 2 | Homo sapiens |
2 | We found that ADRB2 haplotype was independently associated with % body fat, abdominal fat distribution, VO(2(max)), insulin sensitivity (M/DeltaInsulin), and glucose tolerance (ANOVA, P < 0.05 for all). | Glucose | adrenoceptor beta 2 | Homo sapiens |
3 | This suggests that ADRB2 haplotypes may mediate insulin action, glucose tolerance, and potentially risk for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in obese, postmenopausal women. | Glucose | adrenoceptor beta 2 | Homo sapiens |
