Genetic Variant in Leptin rs7799039 Is Associated with Total Body Mineral Estimates, but Not with Fat Mass, in Young Healthy Adults.

Nutrients - 1 Feb 2026

Falbová Darina, Vorobeľová Lenka

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to investigate the association between the rs7799039 variant in the leptin (LEP) gene and specific parameters of body composition in young healthy Slovak adults using bioelectrical impedance analysis. METHODS: We assessed 467 young adults aged 18 to 30 years with an average age of 22.55 ± 2.56 years. Genotyping of SNP LEP G-2548A (rs7799039) was performed by...
