Genetic variation, growth and metabolic phenotypes in the longitudinal Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1966

2011-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have recently shown their potential in the discovery of genetic factors associated with common diseases. Genetic association studies including GWAS can be used to explore the role of genetic variation underlying the associations between birth size, growth and metabolic phenotypes such as adiposity, lipid and glucose levels and hypertension. The aim of this thesis was to 1) re...
