Promoter methylation of serotonin transporter gene is associated with obesity measures: a monozygotic twin study
OBJECTIVE: Epigenetic mechanisms are increasingly being recognized as an important factor for obesity. The serotonin transporter gene (SLC6A4) has a critical role in regulating food intake, body weight and energy balance. This study examines the potential association between SLC6A4 promoter methylat...
