Abstract excerpt

CONTEXT: Myostatin (MSTN) is a member of the TGF-β superfamily of signal transduction proteins, which plays an important role in muscular growth and lipid metabolism. OBJECTIVE: To study the association of myostatin gene polymorphisms with obesity in Chinese north Han human subjects. DESIGN: 297 healthy and 606 over-weight/obesity Chinese north Han subjects were selected as healthy control group and...
