rs534870 associates with body fat percentage in individuals of European descent. The body fat percentage decreasing allele of rs534870 was modestly associated with decreased SPRY2 expression in whole blood (a critical regulator of adipose tissue differentiation in mice, [PMID 20410440]). In contrast with the near-IRS1 locus, there was no association between rs534870 and SPRY2 expression in adipose tissue, brain or liver.
