Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Recent data suggest that retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) gene variants could be associated with a risk of obesity and its co-morbidities, such as metabolic syndrome, which increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease. OBJECTIVES: The present study examined the potential association of RBP4 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with childhood obesity and its...
