Q223R polymorphism of the LEPR and obesity

The problem of overweight and obesity is one of the most urgent health issues in the world. 13 % of girls and 21 % of boys aged 11 suffer from overweight in the Russian Federation. The main causes of pubertal obesity are endocrine pathology, lifestyle and genetic disorders including mutation and pol...
