Abstract excerpt

We performed gene screening of the ciliary neurotrophic factor receptor (CNTFR) gene and genotyped three newly identified polymorphisms: C-1703T in the 5' promoter region, T1069A in intron 5, and C174T in exon 9. We studied the association of these CNTFR variants with muscle strength, mass, and body composition in 465 men and women (20-90 yr) from the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging. Only the C174T variant...
