Association of FTO gene with obesity in Polish schoolchildren

2014-01-30

Abstract excerpt

The goal of the study was verification of fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene polymorphisms as significant risk factors of obesity in the population of Polish children. Body mass index (BMI) and DNA were evaluated, where DNA was extracted from saliva, collected from 213 children at the age of 6–13 years. DNA was genotyped by PCR (polymerase chain reaction) and HRM (high resolution melting) techniques,...
