The age of developing diabetes and FTO polymorphisms (rs9939609, rs1421085, and rs9930506)

Endokrynologia Polska, 2017
Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is a common complex metabolic disorder that has a strong genetic predisposition. Fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) is one of the genes of interest to us. Hypomethylation of a CpG site in the FTO gene was significantly associated with the risk of T2DM.

Common FTO rs9939609 variant and risk of type 2 diabetes in Palestine [PDF]

BMC Medical Genetics, 2018
Genetic and environmental factors play a crucial role in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity. This study aimed to investigate the association of the fat-mass and obesity-associated gene (FTO) rs9939609 variant with T2DM and body mass index (BMI) among Palestinian population.A total of 399 subjects were recruited, of whom 281 ...

Association of FTO rs9939609 and CD36 rs1761667 with Visceral Obesity.

Journal of nutritional science and vitaminology, 2020
In 2016, more than 1.9 billion adults were overweight; of which, over 650 million of adults were obese. Genetics and lifestyle play important roles in the development of obesity. Studies have shown that genetic variants contribute in developing obesity; such as FTO and CD36, which regulate metabolism and food preferences.

Obesity-associated gene FTO rs9939609 polymorphism in relation to the risk of tuberculosis [PDF]

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2014
Obesity is known to affect cell-mediated immune responses. Recent studies have revealed that genetic polymorphisms in the fat mass and obesity associated (FTO) gene are related to human obesity. We hypothesize that this gene may also play a role in the risk of immune-related infectious diseases such as tuberculosis.This case-control study included 1625

The association between FTO rs9939609 gene polymorphism and anthropometric indices in adults [PDF]

Journal of Physiological Anthropology, 2020
Abstract Background Fat mass and obesity-associated gene (FTO) is the most studied obesity-related gene up to date. We aimed to assess anthropometric indices in carriers of FTO rs9939609 polymorphism with overweight across Iranian population (Shiraz) to find out the associations of this polymorphism with obesity indices.
