Association of leptin receptor gene polymorphisms and essential hypertension in a Chinese population.

Journal of endocrinological investigation - 1 Oct 2012

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The leptin receptor (LEPR) is an important regulator of leptin activity and resistance. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of LEPR have been linked to diseases accompanying obesity and/or obesity-related diseases in different populations. However, the results from published studies remain inconsistent rather than conclusive. AIM: To investigate whether LEPR SNP are associated with essential...
