Bases neuroendocrinológicas y moleculares de la obesidad

Abstract:

Human obesity fits the pattern of complex disease model in which environmental factors exert their effect on the basis of a polygenic heritage. This review analyzes the current knowledge regarding the complex neuroendocrinological control of energy homeostasis in which the hypothalamus and, mainly, its arcuate nucleus, plays a key role coordinating and integrating afferent signals from adipose tissue and gastrointestinal tract.
