Journal ArticleDOI

Severe obesity is associated with novel single nucleotide polymorphisms of the ESR1 and PPARγ locus in Han Chinese

TL;DR: Severe obesity in Han Chinese was associated with 3 novel common SNPs for ESR1 and PPARgamma, which collectively result in a >5-fold risk of severe obesity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional identification of the promoter of SLC4A5 , a gene associated with cardiovascular and metabolic phenotypes in the HERITAGE Family Study

TL;DR: The observed associations with resting and submaximal-exercise cardiovascular and metabolic traits in the HERITAGE Family Study are likely due to neither variation in the promoter nor known coding SNPs of SLC4A5.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variations in the four and a half LIM domains 1 gene (FHL1) are associated with fasting insulin and insulin sensitivity responses to regular exercise

TL;DR: Fasting insulin and SI responses to exercise training were associated with DNA sequence variation in FHL1 inwhite men, and whether these associations exist only in white men remains to be investigated.

Multiancestry Genome-Wide Association Study of Lipid Levels Incorporating Gene-Alcohol Interactions

Paul S. de Vries, +265 more
TL;DR: A person's lipid profile is influenced by genetic variants and alcohol consumption, but the contribution of interactions between these exposures has not been studied, so gene-alcohol interactions are incorporated into a multiancestry genome-wide association study of levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density cholesterol, and triglycerides.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predictors of body composition and body energy changes in response to chronic overfeeding

TL;DR: Although none of the variables exerted individually an overwhelmingly strong influence on overfeeding-induced changes, baseline FFM, maximal oxygen uptake, muscle oxidative capacity, androgens and leptin levels were the most consistent significant biomarkers of the responsiveness to chronic overfeeding.
