    ABSTRACT: Objective Body fat mass (BFM) is more homogeneous and accurate than body total mass in measuring obesity, but has rarely been studied. Aiming to uncover the genetic basis of fat-induced obesity, we performed a genome-wide association meta-analysis of BFM, after adjustment by body lean mass, in the European population. Methods Three samples of European ancestry were included into the meta-analysis: the Framingham heart study (FHS, N=6,004), the Kansas-city osteoporosis study (KCOS, N=2,207) and the Omaha osteoporosis study (OOS, N=968). Results At genome-wide significance level (α=5.0×10−8), we identified a cluster of 10 SNPs at chromosomal region 20p11 that were associated with BFM (lead SNP rs2069126 p=1.82×10−9, closest gene SLC24A3) in 9,179 subjects. One of the top SNP
