Abstract excerpt

The G-protein beta3 subunit 825 TT genotype has been associated with obesity and hypertension. We examined the interaction between the G-protein TT genotype, physical activity and body mass index (BMI) in a cross-sectional study of African immigrants and African Americans. The genotype frequencies were 6.3% CC, 37.7% CT, and 56% TT. After adjusting for potential confounders, BMI was found to be significantly...
