Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The number of CAG repeats (CAG(n)) within the CAG repeat polymorphism of the androgen receptor gene correlates inversely with the transactivation of the receptor. OBJECTIVE: To examine the impact of CAG(n) on muscle, fat distribution, and circulating androgen levels. Design, settings and participants Population-based, cross-sectional study of 783 Danish men aged 20-29 years. METHODS: Genotyping was...
