Shared Genetic Loci For Body Fat Storage And Adipocyte Lipolysis In Humans
2021-09-07
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Total body fat and central fat distribution are heritable traits and well-established predictors of adverse metabolic outcomes. Lipolysis is the process responsible for the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols stored in adipocytes. To increase our understanding of the genetic regulation of body fat distribution and total body fat, we set out to determine if genetic variants associated with body mas...
