Genetic polymorphisms of beta(2)- and beta(3)- adrenergic receptor genes associated with characteristics of the metabolic syndrome in black South African women
(Thieme, 2008)Background: Genetic variation in the β2 (ADRB2) and β3 (ADRB3) adrenergic receptor genes are associated with obesity and insulin resistance. To further elucidate the role of these genes in the pathophysiology of obesity ... -
Preparation and transformation of true nifedipine polymorphs: investigated with differential scanning calorimetry and X-Ray diffraction pattern fitting methods
(Elsevier, 2011)The amorphous → metastable and metastable → stable crystalline phase transitions of nifedipine and their relationship with polymorph composition during storage at controlled temperature/humidity conditions were investigated. ... -
Single nucleotide and copy number polymorphisms of the SULT1A1 gene in a South African Tswana population group
(ASSAf, 2011)Previous studies on gene mapping have firmly established variation in segments of the DNA structure amongst different population groups. SULT1A1 is one of four SULT1A genes that maps to the short arm of chromosome 16, ...
