RE: Obesity and the DNA Repair Protein OGG1

in #steemstem6 years ago

Hey justtryme,

interesting article and not that long as you suggest in the beginning ;-)

Many thanks

Besides that, we know the molecular background concerning OGG1 and obesity (which is more a correlation of mitochondrial function and obesity in my eyes, OGG1 just realize this).

What are your recommendations for overweight people to use this knowledge?

Should they consume something which elevates the expression of mitochondrial genes? Should they prevent, however, the oxidation of guanine a bit more, if this is possible?

How did you realized the reproduction of the figures? Gave them the permission to you to do this?

Would be interesting for me. So I don't have to draw any figure by myself next time!

Regards,

Chapper

Sort:  

I recommend nothing for overweight people with this information. It has no applicable context for a person.

This paper is from Nature Scientific reports which is open access and that includes reproduction of article figures with appropriate attribiton (which I do). One can not do this with every article, it is why I am careful in those I present. I'd love to be able to talk about articles from science or nature, but I lack the license to do so in this way, and lack the money to purchase it. :)
