[Identification of genetic polymorphisms associated with overweight in athletes of winter sports].

The identification of polymorphisms rs9939609 gene FTO, Trp64Arg ADRB3 and gene -866G> A UCP2 gene using multiplex allele-specific PCR hybridization-fluorescence detection in real time has been carried out in highly skilled athletes under the age of 30 years engaged in biathlon (n = 25) and bobsleigh (n = 28). The data on the frequency of allele risk of obesity has been obtained. The study of polymorphism rs9939609 of the FTO gene in biathletes found that 30% of them are carriers of the risk allele of obesity (A). Among the bobsledder the frequency of allele A is slightly higher than in European populations and is 55.4%. The study of gene polymorphism Trp64Arg ADRB3 shored that the frequency of risk allele of obesity 64Arg in biathletes (14%) was slightly higher than in the European population and biathletes (5.4%). The results of the identification of polymorphism -866G> A gene UCP2 in biathletes and bobsledders, found the incidence of obesity risk allele, respectively, 52 and 58.7%.
