SERPINF1 and Insulin resistance: Our finding that the A-allele of SNP rs12603825 was (nominally) associated with reduced clamp-derived insulin sensitivity (adjusted effect size −11.7%, AA versus GG) and that this association was completely abolished upon adjustment for body fat is consistent with our working hypothesis which postulated a role of PEDF in obesity-related insulin resistance, as derived from in vitro and mouse studies [4], [5].
