Genetic control of body weight by the human brain proteome

2022-02-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified hundreds of genetic variants associated with body weight but the biological relevance of most remains unexplored. Given the critical role of the brain in multiple biological processes associated with body weight regulation, we set out to determine whether genetic variants linked with body mass index (BMI) could be mapped to brain proteins. Us...
