The association of common polymorphisms in miR-196a2 with waist to hip ratio and miR-1908 with serum lipid and glucose
AssociationN=73,014Mohsen Ghanbari et al.(2015)· Obesity

Two miRNA genetic variants were identified as significantly associated with cardiometabolic phenotypes: rs11614913 in miR-196a2 associated with waist-to-hip ratio (P=1.7e-25), and rs174561 in miR-1908 associated with lipid and glucose traits. Functional analyses revealed these variants affect pre-miRNA processing and regulate target genes involved in fat distribution and lipid metabolism.

About ABR

This gene encodes a protein that is similar to the protein encoded by the breakpoint cluster region gene located on chromosome 22. The protein encoded by this gene contains a GTPase-activating protein domain, a domain found in members of the Rho family of GTP-binding proteins. Functional studies in mice determined that this protein plays a role in vestibular morphogenesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been reported for this gene.
