Epigenome-wide methylation differences in a group of lean and obese women – A HUNT Study
Abstract Knowledge of epigenetically regulated biomarkers linked to obesity development is still scarce. Improving molecular understanding of the involved factors and pathways would improve obesity phenotype characterization and reveal potentially relevant targets for obesity intervention. The Illum...
