Researchers highlighted diabetes- or weight-related white adipose tissue signatures, and searched for adipose tissue proteomic shifts after an eight-week exercise intervention.
Genetic Overlap Between Schizophrenia, Cardiovascular Disease Risk Uncovered by GWAS Analysis
Scientists found an overlap in genetic variants between schizophrenia and CVD risk factors by analyzing the results of multiple GWAS of people of European descent.
Blood-Based Omics Signatures Reflect 'Biological' BMI, Metabolic Health
Features found in the blood offered a more refined look at obesity and related conditions, shifting more readily than body mass index in response to lifestyle changes.
Female-Specific Fat Distribution Gene, Regulatory Variant Emerge from Gene Expression Study
With transcriptome-wide association studies of BMI and waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for BMI, researchers began to untangle the genetics of fat distribution.
