Genetic studies of body mass index yield new insights for obesity biology

Obesity is heritable and predisposes to many diseases. To understand the genetic basis of obesity better, here we conduct a genome-wide association study and Metabochip meta-analysis of body mass index (BMI), a measure commonly used to define obesity and assess adiposity, in up to 339,224 individuals. This analysis identifies 97 BMI-associated loci (P < 5 × 10−8), 56 of which are novel. Five loci demonstrate clear evidence of several independent association signals, and many loci have significant effects on other metabolic phenotypes. The 97 loci account for ~2.7% of BMI variation, and genome-wide estimates suggest that common variation accounts for >20% of BMI variation. Pathway analyses provide strong support for a role of the central nervous system in obesity susceptibility and implicate new genes and pathways, including those related to synaptic function, glutamate signalling, insulin secretion/action, energy metabolism, lipid biology and adipogenesis.

La reflexión sobre la temporalidad en la teología de Henri de Lubac

Si bien la preocupación por la temporalidad no asume en Henri de Lubac un desarrollo sistemático, sin embargo es posible encontrarla como una temática subyacente y transversal en muchos de sus textos, relacionada estrechamente con la reflexión sobre el valor y el sentido de la historia. El autor propone indagar sobre el valor de lo temporal en la confrontación con las doctrinas del budismo, del humanismo ateo y de Joaquín de Fiore. El misterio del sobrenatural es la cuestión teológica elegida para exponer la respuesta y posición del teólogo francés en relación a la temporalidad. Finalmente la apertura de perspectivas críticas permitirá prolongar su pensamiento en preocupaciones actuales.
