Genome-wide meta-analysis uncovers novel loci influencing circulating leptin levels

Tuomas O. Kilpeläinen, +227 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of circulating leptin levels from 32,161 individuals and identified five loci robustly associated with leptin levels in/near LEP, SLC32A1, GCKR, CCNL1 and FTO.
Journal ArticleDOI
