A genome-wide association study of energy intake and expenditure.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2018

Jiang Lai, Penney Kathryn L, Giovannucci Edward, Kraft Peter, Wilson Kathryn M

Abstract excerpt

Excessive energy intake or insufficient energy expenditure, which result in energy imbalance, contribute to the development of obesity. Obesity-related genes, such as FTO, are associated with energy traits. No genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been conducted to detect the genetic associations with energy-related traits, including energy intake and energy expenditure, among European-ancestry populations....
