Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Emerging data suggest a role for the vitamin D receptor (VDR) in lipogenesis and adipocyte differentiation. OBJECTIVE: Our objective was to evaluate the association of VDR gene variants and adiposity phenotypes in an epidemiologic study. DESIGN: In a sample of 1773 healthy female adults recruited from western New York, we tested for the association of 14 VDR single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with...
