Abstract excerpt

A polymorphism in the promoter region of uncoupling protein 2 gene -866 G/A has been associated with its expression levels, the risk of obesity, and metabolic abnormalities. We aimed to investigate the associations of uncoupling protein (UCP)2 gene variants with obesity and related traits. A tota...
