Molecular genetics of human obesity: A comprehensive review.

Comptes rendus biologies - 1 Feb 2017

Singh Rajan Kumar, Kumar Permendra, Mahalingam Kulandaivelu

Abstract excerpt

Obesity and its related health complications is a major problem worldwide. Hypothalamus and their signalling molecules play a critical role in the intervening and coordination with energy balance and homeostasis. Genetic factors play a crucial role in determining an individual's predisposition to the weight gain and being obese. In the past few years, several genetic variants were identified as monogenic forms of...
