Screening of Exons 4-9 Polymorphisms of FTO Gene in Endometrial and Ovarian Cancers [PDF]
Endometrial and ovarian tumours are almost mechanistically affected by reproductive hormones. Ovarian cancer may be explained as metastatic or synchronous primary ovarian cancer, and the specific diagnosis is a challenge.

FTO promotes liver inflammation by suppressing m6A mRNA methylation of IL-17RA
BackgroundPrevious studies have demonstrated that inflammation-related interleukin-17 (IL-17) signaling plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH)- and alcoholic liver disease (ALD)-induced hepatocellular carcinoma ...

Introduction: Single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs9939609 in the FTO gene has been associated with dietary intake and appetite traits, mainly in participants with obesity; however, it remains widely unexplored in normal weight participants.

FTO, obesity and the adolescent brain [PDF]
Genetic variations in fat mass- and obesity (FTO)-associated gene, a well-replicated gene locus of obesity, appear to be associated also with reduced regional brain volumes in elderly. Here, we examined whether FTO is associated with total brain volume in adolescence, thus exploring possible developmental effects of FTO.

Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the most fatal cancers with a very poor prognosis. Here, we found that N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA demethylase fat mass and obesity-related protein (FTO) promote the growth, migration and invasion of PC.

Revealing the catalytic strategy of FTO
The fat-mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) is a Fe(II) and 2-oxoglutarate (2OG)-dependent oxygenase of the AlkB family and is linked with obesity and cancer. The enzyme is identified as single-stranded DNA/RNA demethylase with N6-methyladenine (m6A) modification in RNA as its most favorable substrate.

FTO polymorphisms in oceanic populations [PDF]
It has been suggested that Neel's "thrifty genotype" model may account for high body weights in some Oceanic populations, which presumably arose in modern times. In European populations, common variants (rs1421085-C, rs17817449-G, and rs9939609-A) in the fat mass and obesity (FTO associated) were recently found to be associated with body mass index ...

FTO Gene Polymorphisms and Their Roles in Acromegaly
The major causes of both morbidity and mortality in patients with acromegaly are cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The polymorphisms of the fat mass and obesity-associated gene (FTO) are associated with obesity, as well as with an increased risk of CVDs. The aim of the study was to determine the relationship of risk alleles of four FTO gene polymorphisms
