Genetic variation of FTO: rs1421085 T&gt;C, rs8057044 G&gt;A, rs9939609 T&gt;A, and copy number (CNV) in Mexican Mayan school‐aged children with obesity/overweight and with normal weight
ReviewLizbeth González‐Herrera et al.(2019)· American Journal of Human Biology

A literature review of 70 studies examining single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with obesity in Mexican populations published 2011-2021. The authors identified SNPs with differential behavior in Mexican compared to Caucasian populations, including rs17782313 (MC4R), rs6548238 (TMEM18), rs6265 (BDNF), rs7498665 (SH2B1), and notably rs6232 (PCSK1) associated with early-onset obesity in Mexican youth. The review emphasizes ethnicity-dependent genetic effects on BMI heritability (40-70%) and highlights genes involved in cholesterol metabolism and adipokine signaling pathways.

Common obesity risk alleles in childhood attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder
AssociationN=4,415Özgür Albayrak et al.(2013)· American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics

This study examined whether 32 obesity-associated genetic risk alleles are associated with childhood ADHD in a German GWAS sample (495 cases, 1,300 controls) and a meta-analysis (2,064 trios, 896 cases, 2,455 controls). The obesity risk allele G at rs206936 in NUDT3 was associated with increased ADHD risk (OR=1.39, P=3.4×10⁻⁴), and rs6497416 in GPRC5B showed association with ADHD in the meta-analysis (P=7.2×10⁻⁴). Several obesity-related SNPs were associated with ADHD endophenotypes including inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity.

Associations of polymorphisms in the genes of FGFR2, FGF1, and RBFOX2 with breast cancer risk by estrogen/progesterone receptor status
AssociationN=2,416Yu‐Ling Cen et al.(2013)· Molecular Carcinogenesis

A hospital-based case-control study in rural and urban India (1,204 cases; 1,212 controls) examined genetic and lifestyle risk factors for breast cancer. Four SNPs in FGFR2 (rs1219648, rs2420946, rs2981575, rs2981582) showed positive associations with breast cancer (ORs 1.32-1.47). Additional SNPs in obesity and metabolic genes (rs374748 in FBN2, rs2922763 in HNF4G, rs2116830 in KCNMA1, rs11121832 in MTHFR, rs16886165 in MAP3K1, rs11594610 in TCF7L2, rs2274459 in MLN) were associated with increased breast cancer risk. Waist-to-hip ratio ≥0.95 showed strong association (OR 3.78; 95% CI 2.92-4.89), and women living first 20 years in rural areas showed protective effect (OR 0.77).

About NRXN3

This gene encodes a member of a family of proteins that function in the nervous system as receptors and cell adhesion molecules. Extensive alternative splicing and the use of alternative promoters results in multiple transcript variants and protein isoforms for this gene, but the full-length nature of many of these variants has not been determined. Transcripts that initiate from an upstream promoter encode alpha isoforms, which contain epidermal growth factor-like (EGF-like) sequences and laminin G domains. Transcripts initiating from the downstream promoter encode beta isoforms, which lack EGF-like sequences. Genetic variation at this locus has been associated with a range of behavioral phenotypes, including alcohol dependence and autism spectrum disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]
