Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a composition for diagnosing or predicting a metabolic syndrome and a composition for predicting a group at high risk of expression of blood ceramide and to a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), derived through a genome wide association study (GWAS), capable of predicting metabolic syndrome and a group at high risk of expression of blood ceramide, which is a risk factor for metabolic syndrome. When used, a SNP marker derived by the present invention makes it possible to diagnose or predict metabolic syndrome and to predict a group at high risk of expression of blood ceramide, whereby patients suffering from the metabolic syndrome caused by a high expression of blood ceramide can be effectively diagnosed and managed. On the basis of these effects, the present invention can find wide applications in the pharmaceutical industry, etc.
