Journal ArticleDOI

Familiality of triglyceride and LPL response to exercise training: the HERITAGE study.

TL;DR: It is found that there were common familial factors underlying deltaTG and deltaPH-LPL; these familial factors seemed to differ across sex and generation groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fasting plasma total ghrelin concentrations in monozygotic twins discordant for obesity

TL;DR: The ghrelin gene may play a role in the regulation of variability of body weight, such that Leu72 allele carriers are more prone to weight variability in response to environmental factors.
Book

Physical activity sciences

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce the physical activity sciences and present the search for knowledge, application of knowledge, service areas, and future trends in the Physical Activity Sciences, as well as the future.
Journal ArticleDOI

Time to move on.

TL;DR: A joint effort by the National Institute on Aging at NIH and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will compensate in part for the termination of the human obesity gene map publication project and OGMDB, which covered much more than association studies and was well received by the scientific community.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interactions among the glucocorticoid receptor, lipoprotein lipase, and adrenergic receptor genes and plasma insulin and lipid levels in the Quebec Family Study.

TL;DR: Multiple interactions among GRL, LPL, and ADR gene markers contribute to insulin metabolism and perhaps to lipid levels, while no significant effect is found for each gene separately.
