Several studies have examined the association between CD36 rs1761667 polymorphism
with cardiometabolic risk factors and metabolic syndrome (MetS). This study aimed to …

Our pilot study in a young adult Australian cohort aimed to investigate potential associations
between CD36 polymorphisms (rs1527479 and rs1984112), fat oxidation and …

Cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) is a membrane receptor expressed on a wide variety of
human cells. CD36 polymorphisms are reportedly associated with oral fat perception, dietary …

Background The CD36 gene is a candidate for sensory detection of fatty acids and has been
associated with individual differences in fat preferences and consumption. Excess adiposity …

Abstract Background/Aims: Taste is recognized as an important predictor of food choices.
Thus, polymorphisms in genes encoding taste receptors may explain the variability in food …

The cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) is one of the main receptors implicated in the
pathogenesis of the cardiovascular disease. This study aimed to assess the association …

Background Evidence of the genetic association between CD36 candidate gene and the risk
of metabolic syndrome and its components has been inconsistent. This case–control study …

A recent study suggested that four CD36 polymorphisms (namely rs3211867, rs3211883,
rs3211908, and rs1527483) were associated with an increased risk of obesity, an increased …

Background. Human fatty acid transporter CD36 gene variations have previously been
associated with fat preferences and obesity. These variations could thus cause overweight …

Recent evidence has raised the possibility of the existence of a sixth taste modality–that is,
taste for fat–which is mediated by lingual CD36 and plays a role in obesity. Consequently …
