Characterization and Heritability of Obesity and Associated Risk Factors in Vervet Monkeys

1 Jul 2007

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The objective was to determine the prevalence and heritability of obesity and risk factors associated with metabolic syndrome (MS) in a pedigreed colony of vervet monkeys. DESIGN: A cross-sectional study of plasma lipid and lipoprotein concentrations, glycemic indices, and morphometric measures with heritability calculated from pedigree analysis. A selected population of females was additionally...
