Lack of association of functional UCP2 -866G/A and Ala55Val polymorphisms and type 2 diabetes in the Chinese population based on a case-control study and a meta-analysis
Abstract
Uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) is a mitochondrial transporter protein and can affect the function of β-cells. We investigated a possible association between functional UCP2 -866G/A and Ala55Val polymorphisms and type 2 diabetes in 715 Hubei Han Chinese. No significant association was found, either for the -866G/A polymorphism (allele, P = 0.254; genotype, P = 0.508) or for the Ala55Val polymorphism (allele, P = 0.250; genotype, P = 0.896). Then, we...
