A resistin gene polymorphism is associated with body mass index in women.

Human genetics - 1 Aug 2004

Mattevi Vanessa S, Zembrzuski Verônica M, Hutz Mara H

Abstract excerpt

The potential association of resistin (RETN) gene variability with obesity-related phenotypes was investigated in 585 non-diabetic individuals of European descent. The polymorphism studied (-420 C>G) is located in the RETN gene 5'-flanking region. A significant association between the polymorphism and body mass index and waist circumference was observed in the women subsample (n = 356), where the G allele was...
