Previous studies suggested that polymorphisms in the coding region of the preproghrelin were involved in the etiology of obesity and might modulate glucose-induced insulin secretion. We evaluated the association of a new variation, -604C>T, in the promoter region of the ghrelin gene, of Leu72Met (247C>A) and of Gln90Leu (265A>T), all haplotype-tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), with measures of insulin sensitivity in 1420 adult individuals.
