Replication of genetic effects of MC4R polymorphisms on body mass index in a Korean population.

Endocrine - 1 Dec 2013

Sull Jae Woong, Lee Myoungsook, Jee Sun Ha

Abstract excerpt

Obesity is associated with a variety of adverse health risks. Several genome-wide association studies of obesity have identified candidate genes, including the fat mass and obesity-associated gene (FTO) and the melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) gene. We carried out a replication study of MC4R and FTO variants in a Korean cohort. A total of 2,281 subjects in the Bundang-gu region were analyzed using selected markers....
