UP researchers identify gene linked to obesity: Prof Melvin Ambele
Researchers at the University of Pretoria have made a significant breakthrough in understanding diet-related obesity by identifying a gene that’s found to be a key factor in fat accumulation.
This discovery could pave the way for more effective and sustainable treatments for obesity.
With obesity rates rising globally and especially in South Africa, these findings offer hope for tackling a major public health challenge.
Associate Professor at the University of Pretoria’s Institute for Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Professor Melvin Ambele, joins us for more.
