Edited by leading experts in the field, this book covers an important and rapidly growing area of research. Presenting examples of both macronutrients and micronutrients as they affect gene expression, it addresses lipogenesis, fatty acid oxidation, fatty acid desaturation, and glucose transporters. The book discusses genes that associate with obesity or cancer, genes that are affected by vitamins A and D, and presents information about how specific processes in intermediary metabolism are genetically regulated. It provides readers with in-depth understanding of such diseases as obesity, diabetes, alcoholism, anemia, and others with both a nutrient and a genetic component.
