Objective
To determine the relationship of the gain‐of‐function variant A750T in leucine‐rich repeat containing G protein‐coupled receptor 4 (LGR4) with central obesity and related metabolic phenotypes.
Methods
The LGR4 A750T (c.2248 G > A) variant was detected by Sanger sequencing in a discovery young population and a validation community‐based population with obesity from eastern China. Fat...
