Abstract excerpt
A scan of 4,190 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 199 different genes using 38 different quantitative traits to search for associations between genotypes and phenotypes detected an association between the genotypes at rs671 of ALDH2 and gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase (gamma-GTP) levels. We examined the associations between five factors such as gender, age, rs671 genotype, alcohol-drinking habit, and serum...
