Genetic & epigenetic approach to human obesity.

The Indian journal of medical research - 1 Nov 2014

Rao K Rajender, Lal Nirupama, Giridharan N V

Abstract excerpt

Obesity is an important clinical and public health challenge, epitomized by excess adipose tissue accumulation resulting from an imbalance in energy intake and energy expenditure. It is a forerunner for a variety of other diseases such as type-2-diabetes (T2D), cardiovascular diseases, some types of cancer, stroke, hyperlipidaemia and can be fatal leading to premature death. Obesity is highly heritable and arises...
