These findings indicate that different regions of FTO are involved in childhood and adulthood obesity development; the upstream variant (rs6499640) was found to influence childhood BMI, and the downstream variants (rs1121980, rs8050136, rs9939609 [12], rs17820875 [12], and rs860713 [12]) were found to influence adulthood BMI. The gene discussed is FTO; the disease is obesity disorder.
