The association of the FTO rs9939609 polymorphism with obesity and metabolic risk factors for cardiovascular diseases in Polish children.

Journal of physiology and pharmacology : an official journal of the Polish Physiological Society - 1 Jun 2012

Luczynski W, Zalewski G, Bossowski A

Abstract excerpt

The phenomenon of excessive body mass increase in the general population of children and adults in the past few decades and has been attributed to environmental changes, especially when superimposed on a predisposing genetic background. The fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene has recently become one of the most extensively investigated genes associated with body mass. The aim of the study was to...
