Global transcript profiles of fat in monozygotic twins discordant for BMI: pathways behind acquired obesity.
<h4>Background</h4>The acquired component of complex traits is difficult to dissect in humans. Obesity represents such a trait, in which the metabolic and molecular consequences emerge from complex interactions of genes and environment. With the substantial morbidity associated with obes...
