[Genetics of obesity and metabolic complications in the Quebec Family Study].

Medecine sciences : M/S - 1 Oct 2003

Pérusse Louis, Bouchard Claude

Abstract excerpt

Considerable progress has been accomplished over the past 10 years in the understanding of the genetic basis of obesity and its related metabolic complications. It is now well established that obesity aggregates within families and that genes are partly responsible for this familial aggregation. The number of genes potentially involved in obesity continues to grow. This review summarizes the evidence accumulated...
