OverviewWe now know that genes are turned on or off by one or more nutrients. This is important knowledge as we try to understand how individual differences affect our nutrient needs and tolerances. We need to know how what we eat affect the phenotypic expression of our own particular genotype. This book provides an update of this important and rapidly growing field of inquiry. It includes reviews by some important new players in this fast-paced area of research. The material addresses the role of vitamin A in the expression of the main rate controlling enzyme gluconeogenesis and covers leptin and uncoupling proteins. It also discusses vitamin D and the expression of calcium binding proteins and the role of C/EBP in adipogenesis.
