Abstract excerpt

Genetic factors likely contribute to the biological vulnerability to anorexia nervosa (AN) and bulimia nervosa (BN). We investigated whether the Arg51Gln and/or the Leu72Met gene polymorphisms of the human ghrelin, a peptide involved in the regulation of eating behavior, were associated to AN and...
