Sex differences in obesity: X chromosome dosage as a risk factor for increased food intake, adiposity and co-morbidities.

Physiology & behavior - 1 Jul 2017

Reue Karen

Abstract excerpt

Obesity is a world-wide problem, and a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer and other diseases. It is well established that sex differences influence fat storage. Males and females exhibit differences in anatomical fat distribution, utilization of fat stores, levels of adipose tissue-derived hormones, and obesity co-morbidities. The basis for these sex differences may be parsed into the...
