A resistin gene polymorphism is associated with body mass index in women

The potential association of resistin (RETN) gene variability with obesity-related phenotypes was investigated in 585 non-diabetic individuals of European descent. The polymorphism studied (-420 C>G) is located in the RETN gene 5'-flanking region. A significant association between the polymo...
