ABSTRACT
Obesity has a harmful impact on health and is imposed by both environmental and genetic factors. Recently, over 60 obesity-related susceptible loci have been identified through genome-wide association study. However, it still remained unknown whether these loci were specific or generalized to the ethnic groups for genetic distinction. This review summarized the obesity-related susceptible loci in Asian populations, which were recently identified among Europeans or Asians.
