Association of E-Selectin Gene +A561C Polymorphism with Type 2 Diabetes in Chinese Population |
Background: Diabetes is associated with endothelial cell dysfunction. E-selectin is an endothelial cell adhesion molecule, which is bound for endothelial cell activation. E-selectin gene+A561C polymorphism is associated with many different disorders: essential hypertension, stroke, angina pectoris, coronary heart disease, etc. But the association with type 2 diabetes remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the role of E-selectin gene+A561C polymorphism and soluble E-selectin in type 2 diabetes in a Chinese population.
