Heritability and genome-wide association analysis of renal sinus fat accumulation in the Framingham Heart Study.

BMC medical genetics - 1 Nov 2011

Foster Meredith C, Yang Qiong, Hwang Shih-Jen, Hoffmann Udo, Fox Caroline S

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Ectopic fat accumulation in the renal sinus is associated with chronic kidney disease and hypertension. The genetic contributions to renal sinus fat accumulation in humans have not been well characterized. METHODS: The present analysis consists of participants from the Framingham Offspring and Third Generation who underwent computed tomography; renal sinus fat and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) were...
