Contribution of body composition components and soft-tissue biochemical factors to genetic variation of body mass index (BMI) in an ethnically homogeneous population.

American journal of human biology : the official journal of the Human Biology Council - 1 Jan 2000

Dosaev Tasbulat, Prakash Jai, Livshits Gregory

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Elevated BMI results from an excess of not only fat mass (FM) but also fat-free soft tissue mass (FFM). Both components of body soft tissue, FM, and FFM, are now considered as active endocrine organs. The major aim of this study was to explore the genetic architecture of BMI, considering genetic variations of its major soft tissue components, and the main biochemical factors associated with their...
