unitary disease entity, encompassing a broad spectrum of psychopathology arising from …

Background Cardiometabolic risk factors (impaired fasting glucose, abdominal obesity, high
blood pressure, dyslipidemia) cluster in children, may predict adult disease burden, and are …

Although hundreds of genome-wide association studies-implicated loci have been reported
for adult obesity-related traits, less is known about the genetics specific for early-onset …

In the developing brain, cell-surface proteins play crucial roles, but their protein-protein
interaction network remains largely unknown. A proteomic screen identified 200 interactions …

Obesity and overweight are worldwide public health problems with an evident genetic
predisposition that is still poorly understood. In addition, great variability has been described …

Background: Obesity occurs due to the interaction between the genetic background and
environmental factors, including an increased food intake and a sedentary lifestyle …

Background Several obesity susceptibility loci in genes, including GNPDA2, SH2B1,
TMEM18, MTCH2, CDKAL1, FAIM2, and MC4R, have been identified by genome-wide …

The prevalence of childhood obesity has increased worldwide. Although it is considered a
polygenic inheritance disease, little is known about its susceptibility when the additive effect …

The scarcity of the results obtained for the treatment of obesity leads us to consider new
strategies, contemplating all the factors involved in the development of the disease. One of …

Background Many genetic polymorphisms identified by genome‐wide association studies
for adult body mass index (BMI) have been suggested to regulate food intake. Objective The …
