Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/AIM: We studied the molecular pathogenesis of obesity, involving complex interactions between environmental and genetic factors, with a focus on the leptin gene. It was our aim to characterize the LEP -2548G>A leptin polymorphism and lipid profile in obese and normal-weight individuals. METHODS: A total of 212 individuals were divided into the study group including 136 obese patients (body mass index,...
