Kim, K.J., Ahn, N.Y., Cheon, W.K., Park, J.S., Hong, C.B., Shin, Y.J., Kim. S.H., Kim, T.H., Lee, J.E. Relationship between Gln223Arg polymorphism in the leptin receptor gene and body composition in middle-aged women. Exercise Science, 13(2): 233-240, 2004. Previous studies have been found for the polymorphism in the leptin receptor gene being involved in human obesity, We examined relationship between the Gln223Arg polymorphism in the leptin receptor gene and body composition. Subjects were consisted of obese group (N=94) and normal weight group (N=95) in middle-aged women. Body weight, %fat, BMI, skinfold thickness, body circumferences, and WHR we measured for the analysis of the detailed physique. Leptin receptor polymorphism was detected by PCR-RELP assays. The Gln223Arg polymorphism in the leptin receptor gene was no significant difference between obese and normal weight group, and heterozygous for the leptin receptor gene showed the highest values in both groups. The allele frequency was no significant difference between obese and normal weieht group. Body weight and BMI showed a significant (p<0.05) difference between mutant homozygous and heterozygous of the Gln223Arg in the leptin receptor gene in both groups. Hip and high circumferences showed a significant (p<0.05) difference between mutant homozygous and heterozygous of Gln223Arg in the leptin receptor gene in both groups. Although it was no significance, skinfold thickness of mutant homozygous group showed a high values than mutant heterozygous group in obese group. Therefore the Gln223Arg polymorphism of the leptin gene receptor not appeared to be a risk factor for obesity in middle-aged Korean women, but we suggest that the Gln223Arg polymorphism of the leptin gene receptor affect to the body composition.
