Maternal transmission bias of inherited genetic variants in severe early-onset obesity
2022-09-01
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background: Obesity is highly influenced by genetics, with stronger genetic component in severe early-onset obesity (EOO). Heterozygous rare sequence variants (RSVs) affecting genes of the leptin-melanocortin pathway and hypothalamic function cause EOO, with variable expressivity and incomplete penetrance. We aimed to define whether and how parental inheritance could influence expressi...
