Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: We examined the potential impact of the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A receptor (5-HT(2A)R) c.1438A>G promoter polymorphism on obesity and estimates of insulin, glucose as well as lipid metabolism. METHODS: The genotypes and allelic frequencies of the 5-HT(2A)R c.1438A>G were examined with polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) in 210 patients with overweight/obesity...
