Abstract excerpt

AIM: We aimed to study the influence of the fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene on eating behavior in 412 obese Sardinian children and adolescents. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified several susceptibility loci for obesity. Among these, the polymorphisms in the intron 1 of the FTO gene has been found associated to weight gain and obesity in various populations. METHODS: All obese...
