Genetic variation in TAS2R38 bitterness receptor is associated with body composition in Korean females.

International journal of food sciences and nutrition - 1 Mar 2024

Jo Yi-Seul, Choi Jeong-Hwa

Abstract excerpt

Bitterness-receptor gene TAS2R38 is associated with taste sensitivity and dietary behaviour, and is known to play a critical role in adiposity. However, evidence regarding body composition from a large cohort is lacking. This study aimed to ascertain whether TAS2R38 rs10246939 C > T bitterness genetic variation is associated with body composition in Korean individuals. The TAS2R38 rs10246939 genotypes,...
