Background: Although the Fat Mass and Obesity (FTO) and Melanocortin-4 Receptor (MC4R) genes have been consistently associated with obesity risk, the association between the obesity-risk alleles with type 2 diabetes is still controversial. In some recent meta-analyses in which significant results have been reported, the associations disappeared after adjustment for body mass index (BMI). However gene-diet interactions with dietary patterns have not been investigated. Our main aim was to analyze whether these associations are modulated by the level of adherence to the Mediterranean Diet (MedDiet). Methods: Case-control study in 7,052 high cardiovascular risk subjects (3,430 type 2 diabetes c…

Background Abdominal obesity (AO) is a common modifiable risk factor for certain non-communicable diseases associated with enhanced oxidative stress (OS). The objective of this work was to investigate whether the interaction between antioxidant vitamin intake and OS-related polymorphisms modulates gene-associated anthropometry in a Spanish population. Methods A total of 246 subjects with AO, and 492 age and gender matched non-AO subjects were included in the study. Anthropometric, biochemical, and OS parameters, and antioxidant dietary intake data were assessed using validated procedures. DNA from white blood cells was isolated and the genotype of seven polymorphisms from genes involved in …
Percepción del sabor, dieta mediterránea y nutrigenética: efecto sobre los componentes del síndrome metabólico
2012
Una misma dieta no tiene el mismo efecto sobre el fenotipo cardiovascular de personas distintas. La hipótesis dieta-lípidos-corazón planteada en los años cincuenta sugiere que el consumo de un patrón de dieta mediterránea confiere efectos cardioprotectores al reducir la prevalencia de obesidad abdominal y síndrome metabólico en diferentes poblaciones. Actualmente se admite que la relación entre dieta y enfermedad cardiovascular es más compleja, que se extiende a todos los componentes alimenticios, y que depende en alto grado, de la susceptibilidad genética individual. Los individuos que se adhieren a los principios de una dieta tradicional mediterránea tienen una mayor calidad de vida y una…
