Genetic variants of VDR and CYP2R1 affect BMI independently of serum vitamin D concentrations
Abstract Background Vitamin D metabolism and obesity have been linked by several studies, however the reason for this association is unclear. Our objective was to investigate potential correlations between genetic variants in key enzymes of vitamin D metabolism and the body mass index on a represent...
