Association between a variant at the GABA(A)alpha6 receptor subunit gene, abdominal obesity, and cortisol secretion.

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences - 1 Jun 2002

Rosmond Roland, Bouchard Claude, Björntorp Per

Abstract excerpt

In the present study, we examined the potential impact of a T-to-C substitution at nucleotide 1519 of the GABA(A)alpha6 receptor subunit gene (GABRA6) on obesity and obesity-related phenotypes as well as circulating hormones, including salivary cortisol, in 284 unrelated Swedish men born in 1944. The subjects were genotyped by using PCR amplification followed by digestion with the restriction enzyme AlwNI. The...
