Abstract excerpt

Multiple studies have identified FTO gene variants associated with measures of adiposity in European-derived populations. The objective of the study was to determine whether FTO variants were associated with adiposity, including visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue (VAT, SAT), and glucose homeostasis measures in the Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Family Study (IRASFS). A total of 27 SNPs in FTO intron 1,...
