Background: Previous studies have shown that chemerin has important roles in the development of obesity, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and T2DM. The main goal of our study was to investigate the role of Chemerin rs17173608 gene polymorphism in T2DM (type 2 diabetes mellitus).
