Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Leptin (LEP) is an endocrine hormone that participates in many metabolic pathways, including those associated with the central regulation of energy homeostasis. OBJECTIVE: We examined the associations between polymorphisms in the LEP and leptin receptor (LEPR) genes and resting metabo...
