Abstract excerpt

Food intake and weight gain are influenced by endocannabinoids whose actions are regulated by the fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) enzyme. The homozygous Thr/Thr genotype of the functional Pro129Thr variant (rs324420) in the gene encoding FAAH was recently reported to associate with overweight and obesity in white and black populations. We investigated the Pro129Thr variant in relation to overweight and obesity...
