DNA damage in paediatric obesity : a promoter and predictor of cancer in adulthood

2020-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Obesity in children is one of the most serious, global, public health challenges of the 21st century. The accumulation of adipose tissue is associated with a range of metabolic complications including diabetes, cardiovascular disease and dyslipidaemia. Epidemiological evidence links obesity in childhood with developing certain types of cancer later in life. It is postulated that excess adipose tissue and consequen...
