Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) may play a role in body fat regulation. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between PLTP genetic variants and obesity-related phenotypes. METHODS: Two intronic variants, one in intron 1 (c.-87G>A) and the other in intron 12 (c.1175+68T>G), were genotyped in 811 participants of the Québec Family Study. Nine obesity-related phenotypes were investigated,...
