Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between DNA polymorphisms in the NPY and AGRP genes and body fatness. DESIGN AND METHODS: The association between the AGRP Ala67Thr or the NPY Leu7Pro polymorphisms and indicators of body fatness (baseline leptin levels, body mass index (BMI) values and prevalence of overweight) are investigated in 582 participants of two large cohorts in The Netherlands (total 18 500...
