The chromosome 3q25 locus associated with fetal adiposity is not associated with childhood adiposity.

5 , 6 , 8 A highly significant and reproducible finding was the association of SNPs within the chromosome 3q25.31 locus with newborn adiposity as reflected by newborn sum of skinfolds or ponderal index. 5 , 6 , 8 In this report, we now demonstrate that association of this locus with measures of adiposity is no longer evident at

6 Association of this locus with sum of skinfolds, driven primarily by skinfold thickness at the triceps, approached significance in the cohort of 2-year olds, but this association was in the opposite direction to that observed in newborns.
