The genetics of obesity. Lessons for polycystic ovary syndrome.

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences - 1 Jan 2000

Legro R S

Abstract excerpt

Both polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and obesity are common disorders with a complex phenotype. Both are presumably heterogeneous in etiology. Understanding the genetics of obesity, which has a longer and richer history, may therefore illuminate the genetics of PCOS, where major projects are now underway. Obesity may be the penultimate condition in which the effects of heredity and environment will forever...
