No association between rs7566605 variant and being overweight in Japanese.

Obesity (Silver Spring, Md.) - 1 Nov 2007

Kuzuya Masafumi, Ando Fujiko, Iguchi Akihisa, Shimokata Hiroshi

Abstract excerpt

It has recently been demonstrated that a common single-nucleotide polymorphism (rs7566605) upstream of the transcription start site for the insulin-induced gene 2 is associated with obesity in several European/European origin or African-American cohorts. We tested whether this variant is also linked to overweight among Asian populations. Our sample included 2233 randomly selected, community-dwelling, middle-age...
