Methylation and Expression of <i>FTO</i> and <i>PLAG1</i> Genes in Childhood Obesity: Insight into Anthropometric Parameters and Glucose–Lipid Metabolism

The occurrence of childhood obesity is influenced by both genetic and epigenetic factors. <i>FTO</i> (<i>FTO</i> alpha-ketoglutarate dependent dioxygenase) is a gene of well-established connection with adiposity, while a protooncogene <i>PLAG1</i> (<i>PLAG1&...
