Study Summary

The focus of this proposal is on overweight (25\>BMI\<30 kg/m2) subjects, as these individuals exhibit a high risk of becoming obese and/or developing metabolic diseases. We hypothesize that in some overweight individuals there is a "metabolic program" in skeletal muscle which predisposes them to the development of obesity. Findings may lead to clinical screening tools for determining risk for obesity in non-obese individuals and targeting this group for prevention.
