Abstract excerpt

Obesity is currently a worldwide public health problem. Retinol-binding protein4 (RBP4) is a recently discovered adipokine, which is potentially associated with insulin resistance and obesity. We aimed to investigate whether genetic variation within the RBP4 gene is correlated with the obesity and lipid profile in Iranian population. 321 samples were randomly selected from participants of Isfahan Healthy Heart...
