Obese fathers lead to an altered metabolism and obesity in their children in adulthood: review of experimental and human studies

17 Aug 2017

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To discuss the recent literature on paternal obesity, focusing on the possible mechanisms of transmission of the phenotypes from the father to the children. SOURCES: A non-systematic review in the PubMed database found few publications in which paternal obesity was implicated in the adverse transmission of characteristics to offspring. Specific articles on epigenetics were also evaluated. As the...
