The fatty acid binding protein 2 (FABP2) polymorphism Ala54Thr and obesity in Pakistan: A population based study and a systematic meta-analysis.

Gene - 10 Dec 2015

Shabana, Hasnain Shahida

Abstract excerpt

The prevalence of obesity has increased worldwide and it has been designated as a global epidemic by WHO. In Pakistan, recent decades have seen an explosion of obesity, but the research in the field of obesity genetics is limited. We aimed to determine the allele/genotype frequencies of Ala54Thr polymorphism of the FABP2 gene that affects fatty acid metabolism and look for its association on serum biochemical...
