An overview about DNA methylation in childhood obesity: Characteristics of the studies and main findings.

Journal of cellular biochemistry - 1 Jun 2020

Lima Rafael Silva, de Assis Silva Gomes Juliana, Moreira Paula Rocha

Abstract excerpt

Childhood obesity is a global burden affecting millions of children worldwide. It is well-known that the adiposity profile in children is critical for future occurrence of diseases. As a multifactorial disease, obesity is associated with genetic and environmental factors. Epigenetic mechanisms link the plethora of environmental clues to a given phenotype. DNA methylation is the most studied epigenetic mark and...
