El consumo excesivo de comida y la falta de ejercicio no son la causa total del sobrepeso, seg\u00fan un nuevo estudio.<\/p>\n
Un grupo de investigadores de la Universidad de Duke (Estados Unidos) ha descubierto que los portadores de una variante del gen anquirina-B, inherente a millones de personas, son propensos a sufrir de sobrepeso por muy saludable que sea su estilo de vida.<\/p>\n
Una serie de experimentos en ratones han indicado que la prote\u00edna anquirina-B hace que los lipocitos absorban glucosa m\u00e1s r\u00e1pido de lo normal aumentando su tama\u00f1o en m\u00e1s de dos veces.<\/p>\n
\u00abSi se suman a esta ecuaci\u00f3n los cambios que afectan el metabolismo como la edad o una dieta alta en grasas, la obesidad es inevitable\u00bb, aseguran los autores del estudio.<\/p>\n
Los investigadores creen que este gen podr\u00eda haber ayudado a nuestros antepasados a conservar energ\u00eda en tiempos de hambruna. En nuestros d\u00edas, cuando la comida es abundante, la anquirina-B \u00abpodr\u00eda estar fomentando una epidemia de obesidad\u00bb, reza el documento.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
