FLASH GENE DNA RNA EXPRESSION PROTEIN DISORDER ANIMAL & CELL MODELS

ASSOCIATED DISORDERS

corresponding disease(s)

Other morbid association(s)

Type Gene Modification Chromosome rearrangement Protein expression Protein Function constitutional     --over   in atherosclerotic lesions constitutional     --low   in obesity playing causal roles, at least in part, in the development of insulin resistance and diabetes

Susceptibility

to atherosclerosis

Variant & Polymorphism other	variants of ADIPOR2 could be a determinant for atherosclerosis independent of insulin resistance status, possibly by affecting ADIPOR2 protein levels
