Genetics of fat storage in flies and worms: what went wrong? [PDF]
Body weight and fat storage are strongly influenced by an individual’s genetic makeup. In humans, genetic polymorphisms have been identified that have effects on body mass index (BMI) and fat content (Meyre et al., 2009; Speliotes et al., 2010; Choquet ...

Effects of genetic loci associated with central obesity on adipocyte lipolysis [PDF]
Objectives: Numerous genetic loci have been associated with measures of central fat accumulation, such as waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for body mass index (WHRadjBMI).

Metabolic effects of diets differing in glycaemic index depend on age and endogenous GIP [PDF]
Aims/hypothesis High- vs low-glycaemic index (GI) diets unfavourably affect body fat mass and metabolic markers in rodents. Different effects of these diets could be age-dependent, as well as mediated, in part, by carbohydrate-induced stimulation of ...
