Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The fat mass and obesity-associated gene (FTO) participates in the control of postnatal weight gain. We assessed whether FTO is expressed in human placenta and whether such expression relates to prenatal weight gain and to the rs9939609 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in FTO. DESIGN AND SUBJECTS: In a birth cohort study, placentas from women (n = 147) with an uncomplicated, singleton, term...
