Genetic variation in the pleiotropic association between physical activity and body weight in mice.

Genetics, selection, evolution : GSE - 23 Sept 2009

Leamy Larry J, Pomp Daniel, Lightfoot J Timothy

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: A sedentary lifestyle is often assumed to lead to increases in body weight and potentially obesity and related diseases but in fact little is known about the genetic association between physical activity and body weight. We tested for such an association between body weight and the distance, duration, and speed voluntarily run by 310 mice from the F2 generation produced from an intercross of two...
