P Kovacs, A Lehn-Stefan, M Stumvoll, C … - Diabetes, 2003 - Am Diabetes Assoc FOXC2 is a winged helix gene that has been shown to counteract obesity,
hypertriglyceridemia, and diet-induced insulin resistance in rodents. Therefore,
FOXC2 was analyzed as a candidate gene for susceptibility to type 2 ... Cited by 21 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 5 versions
H Osawa, H Onuma, A Murakami, M Ochi, T … - Diabetes, 2003 - Am Diabetes Assoc FOXC2, a forkhead/winged helix transcription factor, represents a promising
candidate gene for type 2 diabetes since transgenic mice that specifically
overexpress this gene in adipocytes are lean and insulin sensitive. To ... Cited by 17 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 5 versions
