ABSTRACT:
A single nucleotide polymorphism occurring on a leptin receptor gene is analyzed and an inflammatory disease is examined on the basis of the analytical data. Further, a substance capable of changing the interaction between the leptin receptor and galectin-2 is selected to thereby screen a remedy for an inflammatory disease.
