Four novel UCP3 gene variants associated with childhood obesity: effect on fatty acid oxidation and on prevention of triglyceride storage

OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to look for uncoupling protein 3 (UCP3) gene variants in early-onset severe childhood obesity and to determine their effect on long-chain fatty acid oxidation and triglyceride storage. METHODS AND RESULTS: We identified four novel mutations in the UCP3 gene...
