FTO haplotyping underlines high obesity risk for European populations

1 Mar 2019

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene has been under close investigation since the discovery of its high impact on the obesity status in 2007 by a range of publications. Recent report on its implication in adipocytes underscored its molecular and functional mechanics in pathology. Still, the population specific features of the locus structure have not been approached in detail. METHODS: We...
