Association of FTO and IRX3 genetic variants to obesity risk in north India.

Annals of human biology - 1 Sept 2016

Srivastava Apurva, Mittal Balraj, Prakash Jai, Srivastava Pranjal, Srivastava Nimisha, Srivastava Neena

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Obesity is an increasingly important health problem worldwide as well as in developing countries like India. Recent genetic studies suggest that obesity associated FTO and IRX3 are functionally linked and many effects due to genetic variants in FTO gene act through IRX3. AIM: To evaluate the association of FTO and IRX3 genetic variants towards obesity risk. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: North Indian...
