Neste estudo, foi avaliada a relação entre polimorfismos dos genes da leptina (LEP) e receptores da leptina (LEPR) e parâmetros antropométricos, leptinemia glicemia e lipídeos séricos, em indivíduos da população brasileira. Foram incluídos 238 indivíduos com idade entre 30 e 80 anos. Foram medidos o índice de massa corporal (IMC), a cintura abdominal (CA) e a razão cintura quadril (RCQ). Amostras de sangue periférico foram obtidas para análise do perfil bioquímico e extração de DNA. Os polimorfismos de nuleotideo único (SNPs) LEP G-2548A e LEPR Lys109Arg, Gln223Arg e Lys656Asn foram detectados por PCR-RFLP. Os SNPs LEPR Lys109Arg e Gln223Arg foram associados com obesidade e com IMC e CA aumentados (p<0.05). Estes polimorfismos também foram ...
