    Snippet: Consistent with this idea, two studies demonstrate a linkage between the TaqI polymorphism of the apoD gene and type 2 diabetes in South Indians and Nauruans [54, 55] . Subsequently, Vijayaraghavan et al. [56] report that the TaqI polymorphism of apoD is associated with the development of obesity, insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia in the British Caucasoid population.

    Document: Consistent with this idea, two studies demonstrate a linkage between the TaqI polymorphism of the apoD gene and type 2 diabetes in South Indians and Nauruans [54, 55] . Subsequently, Vijayaraghavan et al. [56] report that the TaqI polymorphism of apoD is associated with the development of obesity, insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia in the British Caucasoid population. This effect seems to be independent of body weight, as no significant association is detected between the apoD polymorphism and body mass index (BMI) or waist to hip ratio in the same cohort of subjects [56] .
