Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Fat mass and obesity-associated gene (FTO) polymorphism remains the strongest known genetic determinant of common obesity. However, its influence depends on ethnicity, and the FTO-mediated predisposition to other metabolic disturbances is questionable. OBJECTIVES: The aim of our study was to evaluate the association between FTO rs9939609 polymorphism and metabolic syndrome in a population of...
