“…Our results are inconsistent with the previous findings in non-Chinese populations, indicating significant associations between the ER-α gene and BMI variation in postmenopausal Caucasian women [20] , middle-aged Japanese women [22] , postmenopausal white women [21] , African-American families [24] , Brazilian subjects [25] , and men from the Framingham Heart Study [23] . However, our findings are consistent with the two previous studies performed on Chinese females [26,27] and a study in women from the Framingham Heart Study showing no effect of the ER-α gene on BMI variation [23] .…”

“…ER and progesterone receptor status was used to define breast cancer risk factors [19] . Polymorphisms in the ER-α gene have been reported to be associated with BMI, though contradictory results were also reported [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27] . Osteocalcin, also called bone Gla protein (BGP), is an osteoblast-specific protein that is known to play a role in bone growth and has recently been reported to function as a new metabolic hormone regulating the adiposity and glucose homeostasis in experimental animals [28][29][30] .…”

“…However, the striking findings among overweight women, for whom ESR2 polymorphisms had a profound impact on prognosis, point towards the field of gene-environment interaction. The findings demonstrated in this study are in line with other studies on ESR2 polymorphisms and anthropometrics, i.e., an inverse relation between one ESR2 haplotype and overweight [11,16,25]. In the field of prostate cancer, Chae et al found an interactive association between BMI and genotypes of ESR2 and prostate cancer risk [2].…”
