[Influence of the -866G/A polymorphism of the UCP2 gene on an obese pediatric population].

Nutricion hospitalaria - 1 Jan 2000

Zurbano R, Ochoa M C, Moreno-Aliaga M J, Martínez J A, Marti A

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: In the present study, our objectives were to evaluate the prevalence of -866G/A mutation of UCP2 gene and to study its influence on the phenotype of obese children (11-12 years old) from Navarra. BACKGROUND AND STUDY SETTING: Obesity is a disease with a multifactorial origin that may related be to the presence of mutations and polymorphisms in several candidate genes. The gene of the uncoupling protein...
