• openAccess   Association of the LCT-13910C>T polymorphism with obesity and its modulation by dairy products in a Mediterranean population 

      Corella, Dolores; Arregui, María; Coltell, Oscar; Portolés, Olga; Guillem Sáiz, Patricia; Carrasco, Paula; Sorlí, José V; CAROLINA, ORTEGA-AZORÍN; González, José I.; Ordovás Muñoz, José M. Nature Publishing Group (2011-08)
      The -13910C>T polymorphism (rs4988235) upstream from the lactase (LCT) gene, strongly associated with lactase persistence (LP) in Europeans, is emerging as a new candidate for obesity. We aimed to analyze the association ...
