Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: As a result of efforts to isolate obesity-promoting genes, the Trp64Arg polymorphism in the beta3 adrenergic receptor locus, has been studied by many investigators. Results of the studies have varied in statistical significance and magnitude of the association of the polymorphism with...
