The genetic contribution to non-syndromic human obesity.

Nature reviews. Genetics - 1 Jul 2009

Walley Andrew J, Asher Julian E, Froguel Philippe

Abstract excerpt

The last few years have seen major advances in common non-syndromic obesity research, much of it the result of genetic studies. This Review outlines the competing hypotheses about the mechanisms underlying the genetic and physiological basis of obesity, and then examines the recent explosion of g...
