Abstract excerpt

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: In obese French Caucasian subjects we previously described a silent UCP3 Tyr99Tyr mutation, associated with body mass index. We hypothesised that an unknown polymorphism in the vicinity of the gene could contribute to obesity. METHODS: Morbidly obese subjects were screened for mutations in 1 kb upstream from the UCP3 gene. Association studies were done between a variant and obesity in 401...
