Genetics and Epigenetics of Obesity

The genetics and epigenetics of obesity involve the interaction between inherited traits and environmental influences in determining an individual's susceptibility to weight gain. Genetic variations influence one's likelihood of developing obesity, impacting metabolic processes and fat storage. Epigenetic modifications, like DNA methylation and histone changes, can alter gene expression patterns, contributing to obesity risk without altering the DNA sequence. Environmental factors such as diet, activity levels, and stress can interact with genetic and epigenetic factors to shape obesity development. Understanding this intricate interplay is essential for unraveling obesity mechanisms and tailoring personalized prevention and treatment approaches.
