Heritability of body weight: moving beyond genetics.

Nutrition, metabolism, and cardiovascular diseases : NMCD - 1 Dec 2010

Russo P, Lauria F, Siani A

Abstract excerpt

Obesity is a complex disease, arising from the interaction between several genetic and environmental factors. Until recently, the genetic basis of complex diseases in general, and of obesity in particular, were poorly characterized. While the relatively rare monogenic and syndromic forms of obesi...
