β-Blocker therapy and β-adrenergic receptor (β-AR) polymorphisms are associated with increases in glucose and lipid levels. We investigated associations of common β1 and β2-AR single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with metabolic and lipid variables, and examined interactions with β-blocker treatment assignment to affect these parameters.
