The composite alliance of FTO locus with obesity-related genetic variants.

Clinical and experimental pharmacology & physiology - 1 Jul 2021

Chauhdary Zunera, Rehman Kanwal, Akash Muhammad Sajid Hamid

Abstract excerpt

Obesity has become a genuine global pandemic due to lifestyle and environmental modifications, and is associated with chronic lethal comorbidities. Various environmental factors such as lack of physical activity due to modernization and higher intake of energy-rich diets are primary obesogenic factors in pathogenesis of obesity. Genome-wide association study has identified the crucial role of FTO (fat mass and...
