Frequency of Vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms in the UAE population and their associations with 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels, obesity, diabetes and hypertension
2022-07-05
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Although vitamin D levels and underlying vitamin D receptor (VDR) genetic polymorphisms have been linked to many common diseases including obesity, the association remains unclear. We aimed to determine the genotypes & allele percentage frequency distribution of four polymorphisms FokI, BsmI, ApaI and TaqI in the VDR gene in healthy Emirati individuals and their association with vitamin D lev...
