Nutritional state affects the expression of the obesity-associated genes Etv5, Faim2, Fto, and Negr1.

Obesity (Silver Spring, Md.) - 1 Dec 2012

Boender Arjen J, van Rozen Andrea J, Adan Roger A H

Abstract excerpt

Obesity is a risk factor for type II diabetes, atherosclerosis, and some forms of cancer. Variation in common measures of obesity (e.g., BMI, waist/hip ratio) is largely explained by heritability. The advent of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) has made it possible to identify several genetic variants that associate with measures of obesity, but how exactly these genetic variants contribute to overweight has...
