Variability in CNR1 locus influences protein intake and smoking status in the Central-European population

Abstract

Our results indicate that specific genetic variations in the CNR1 gene may act as susceptibility markers for specific dietary composition in the Central-European population.

Association of G1359A polymorphism of the cannabinoid receptor gene (CNR1) with macronutrient intakes in obese females

“…Bienertova et al . showed that allelic variations and common haplotypes in the CNR1 gene were associated with the daily intake of proteins and fibre. These findings show that genotyping for CB1‐R is linked to differences in the choice of foods.…”
