Genetic associations of the visfatin G-948T polymorphism with obesity-related metabolic traits in an Iranian population

Genetic associations of the visfatin G-948T polymorphism with obesity-related metabolic traits in an Iranian population

Background: Obesity is a global public health problem. Visfatin, as an adipocytokine, is coded by a gene known as nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase. So far, results were conflicted regarding correlations of visfatin with obesity and metabolic variables. The present study aimed to explore the as...
